Aromatic polyamides and polyimides with improved gas perm selectivity, can be designed and prepared by systematically changing structural elements that affect these properties. Indeed, a conscientious choosing of the chemical changes may still provide a promising approach to get better and better polymers for selective filtration of gases. The results of this work, in which novel monomers have been used, have confirmed that gas permeability through aromatic polyamides and polyimides much higher than that of conventional polyamides and polyimides can be achieved. It has been done by introducing bulky side groups, using non-planar monomers, and combining these elements on both monomers: diamines and dianhydrides or diamines and diacids. A theoretical study has also been made to explain the behaviour of some individual polymers, comparing experimental and calculated values of density and free volume.
