TL;DR: It has been found that the membrane permeability decreases rapidly due to reversible pore blocking and further flux decline is caused by the growth of a gel-type layer over the membrane surface.

TL;DR: Three coordination polymers (CPs) have been synthesized based on a [Co(bpy)(H2 O)4 ]2+ chain (bpy=4,4'-bipyridine) by a template approach, which are excellent proton conductors at mild temperature and 98 % R.H.
Abstract: Three coordination polymers (CPs) have been synthesized based on a [Co(bpy)(H2 O)4 ]2+ chain (bpy=4,4'-bipyridine) by a template approach. The frameworks are neutralized by different templated polycarboxylate anions (furan di-carboxylate (fdc) in Co-fdc, benzene tri-carboxylate (btc) in Co-tri and benzene tetra-carboxylate (btec) in Co-tetra). These templates with different degrees of protonation and ionic carrier concentration played significant role on crystal packing as well as formation of well-directed H-bonded networks which made these CPs perform well in proton conduction (PC). The PC value reaches to 1.49×10-1 S cm-1 under 80 °C and 98 % relative humidity (R.H.) for Co-tri, which is the highest among CPs/MOFs/COFs and is an example of conductivity in the order of 10-1 S cm-1 . Co-tri and Co-tetra are excellent proton conductors at mild temperature (40 °C) and 98 % R.H. (conductivities up to 2.92×10-2 and 1.38×10-2 S cm-1 , respectively).

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and cost effective approach for surface modification of PDMS films involving wet chemical treatment in two-step processes: primarily involving piranha solution followed by KOH dip to improve hydrophilicity and stability of the PDMS surface.
Abstract: Successful realization of various BioMEMS devices demands effective surface modification techniques of PDMS elastomer. This paper presents a detailed report on a simple and cost effective approach for surface modification of PDMS films involving wet chemical treatment in two-step processes: primarily involving piranha solution followed by KOH dip to improve hydrophilicity and stability of PDMS surface. Chemical composition of the solution and surface treatment condition have been varied and optimized to significantly increase the surface energy. The effect of surface modification of the elastomer after wet chemical treatment is analyzed using contact angle measurement and FTIR-ATR study. PDMS surface treated in piranha solution with H2O2 and H2SO4 in the ratio of 2:3 followed by a dip in KOH solution for 15 min duration each, demonstrated a maximum reduction of contact angle to ∼27° as compared to untreated sample having a contact angle of ∼110°. The removal of hydrophobic methyl group from elastomer surface and subsequent hydrophilization of surface by wet chemical process was confirmed from FTIR-ATR spectra. This result is also supported by improved adhesion and electrical continuity of deposited aluminum metal film over the modified PDMS surface. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
