Highly selective composite membranes were prepared using 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIM+BF4-) and rod-shaped aluminum oxide onto polysulfone support. The BMIM+BF4-/ rod-shaped Al2O3 composite membrane with 50-nm nanoparticles (NPs) showed a CO2 permeance of 39.3 GPU and a CO2/N-2 selectivity of 43.7. Rod-like 50-nm NPs in ionic liquids showed better performance than spherical 13-nm NPs in membranes using the same weight ratio and same support. These results indicate that the shape of the NPs has a greater effect on CO2 transport than the size of the NPs. The chemical and physical properties of this composite membrane were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis.
