PEBAX[poly(ether-block-amide)에 ZIF-8(zeolitic imidazolate framework)의 함량을 0, 1, 3, 7, 10, 20 wt%으로 하여 PEBAX-ZIF 복합막을 제조하였다. 기체투과 실험은 압력 $6kgf/cm^2$ 하에서 25, 35, $40^{circ}C$로 온도를 달리하여 진행되었고, PEBAX-ZIF 복합막의 ZIF-8 함량 변화에 따른 $C_3H_6$과 $C_3H_8$의 기체투과도와 선택도($C_3H_6/C_3H_8$)를 조사하였다. $C_3H_6$과 $C_3H_8$의 투과기체에 대해 ZIF-8 함량 0~7 wt% 범위에서는 함량이 증가할수록 기체 투과도가 증가하다가 7~20 wt% 범위에서 함량이 증가하면 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 선택도($C_3H_6/C_3H_8$)는 PEBAX-ZIF 7 wt% 복합막에서 3.6~3.8의 값을 가지며, 가장 낮은 활성화에너지 값을 나타냈다.
PEBAX[poly(ether-block-amide)-ZIF-8(zeolitic imidazolate framework) composite membranes were prepared with different amounts of ZIF-8; 0, 1, 3, 7, 10, and 20 wt%. Gas permeation experiment were performed by varying the temperature of 25, 35, $40^{circ}C$ under condition $6kgf/cm^2$. Gas permeability of $C_3H_6$, $C_3H_8$ and selectivity ($C_3H_6/C_3H_8$) were investigated by increasing the amount of ZIF-8 in the PEBAX. The gas permeability of $C_3H_6$ and $C_3H_8$ increased as ZIF-8 content increased among 0 to 7 wt% range and decreased among 7 to 20 wt% range. When the ZIF contents of PEBAX-ZIF composite membrane were 7 wt%, the selectivity ($C_3H_6/C_3H_8$) was taken between 3.6 and 3.8 value and also had the lowest activation energy.
