불소화 반응을 통하여 PDMS을 질소 분위기 하에서 $50{sim}2000;{mu}mol/mol$ 농도의 불소 가스($F_2$)를 사용하여 직접적인 방법으로 복합막 표면개질을 하였고 이를 OM (Optical Microscope), AFM (Atomic Force Microscope), SEM (Scanning electron microscope), FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy)을 측정하여 막 표면을 연구하였고 GC (Gas chromatography)로 혼합 노블가스의 기체 거동을 조사하였다. 다양한 노블 혼합 가스를 사용하여 표면 개질된 PDMS 멤브레인의 선택도가 50% 향상 되었다.
Fluorinated polymeric membranes were prepared by direct surface modification of PDMS with fluorine gas ($50{sim}2000;{mu}mol/mol$ in nitrogen). The formed fluorinated polymeric membranes were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, GC (Gas chromatography), atomic force microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Direct fluorination resulted in the change of permeability and selectivity of various gases (pure gases such as $CO_2$, $O_2$, $N_2$, $C_2H_4$, mixture of He, Ne, Kr, Xe) through PDMS membranes. Fluorination resulted in the maximum 50% increase of selectivity through PDMS membrane.
