METHOD OF MAKING A HIGH-PERFORMANCE SUPPORTED GAS SEPARATION MOLECULAR SIEVE MEMBRANE USING A SHORTENED CRYSTALLIZATION TIME

摘要

A method of making a supported gas separation molecular sieve membrane. In this method a porous support, which is preferably pretreated, is contacted with a molecular sieve synthesis mixture under hydrothermal synthesis conditions. The contacting step is conducted for a shortened crystallization time period. The resulting coated porous support is calcined to yield the supported gas separation molecular sieve membrane having particularly good gas separation characteristics.
