Elucidation on the effect of operating temperature to the transport properties of polymeric membrane using molecular simulation tool

Existing reports of gas transport properties within polymeric membrane as a direct consequence of operating temperature are in a small number and have arrived in diverging conclusion. The scarcity has been associated to challenges in fabricating defect free membranes and empirical investigations of...
