y single gas permeation experiments. The interfacial effect of zeolite particle<br />

size on MMC membrane separation characteristics is investigated by comparing<br />

the properties of membranes prepared with nanosize zeolites with an average<br />

particle size of 200 nm and commercial zeolites with 2-5 microns particle size.<br />

The experimental permeability data obtained in this study were also compared<br />

with the effective permeability predictions of EMT and Modified EMT models. The<br />

results indicated differences in the magnitude of chain rigidification between<br />

different polymer-zeolite systems. The differences in the characteristics of the<br />

polymeric phase change the behavior and the severity of the interphase<br />

characteristics.<br />
