The CO2 separation characteristics of ionic polyimides (i-PIs) are modeled using molecular dynamics simulations in combination with grand canonical Monte Carlo calculations. The performance of neat i-PI systems is evaluated, as well as composite structures containing both i-PIs and various ionic liquids (ILs). The i-PI + IL composites are based on combinations of 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium ([C(4)mim(+)]) cations with three common molecular anions: (bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([Tf2N-]), tetrafluoroborate ([BF4-]), and hexa-fluorophosphate ([PF6-]). It is found that 50 mol% IL inclusion can increase CO2/CH4 selectivity by 16% in [BF4-]-based materials and by 36% in [PF6-]-based materials from mixtures of 5% CO2/95% CH4 . While the [BF4-]-based system shows higher CO2/CH4 selectivity, the [Tf2N-]-based system shows higher CO2/N-2 gas selectivity. A comprehensive structural analysis (fractional free volume (FFV), pore size distribution, surface area, etc.) is used to highlight the underlying differences among the different i-PI + IL systems that lead to the different adsorption properties.
