A series of poly(styrene-b-dimethylsiloxane-bstyrene) (SDS) triblock copolymers with molecular weights ranging from 55 to 150 kg/mol and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) volume fractions ranging from 0.59 to 0.83 were used to fabricate membranes for ethanol/water separation by pervaporation. The rigid polystyrene (PS) microphase provides the membrane with structural integrity, while the rubbery PDMS microphase provides nanoscale channels for ethanol transport. We use a simple model to study the effect of morphology and PDMS volume fraction on permeabilitites of ethanol and water through the block copolymer membranes. We defined normalized permeabilities of ethanol and water to account for differences in morphology and PDMS volume fraction. We found that the normalized ethanol permeability in SDS copolymers was independent of the total polymer molecular weight. This is qualitatively different from what 1.2 Nanostructured membrane Segregation strength 1000 was previously reported for poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene) (SBS) membranes, where the normalized ethanol permeability was found to be a sensitive function of total molecular weight [1. Membr. Sci. 2011, 373, 1121 We demonstrate that this is due to differences in the Flory Huggins interaction parameter (x) for the two systems. When xN is less than 100 (N is the number of segments per chain), the two microphases are weakly segregated, and the presence of glassy PS segments in the transporting microphase impedes ethanol transport. When xN exceeds 100, the two microphases are strongly segregated and the glassy PS segments do not mix with the transporting phase. We compare these results with normalized ionic conductivity data previously reported for mixtures of a lithium salt and polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (SE0). Evidence suggests that the product xi\I governs the transport of widely different species such as ethanol and lithium salts through block copolymer membranes. Surprisingly, the normalized permeability of water is independent of total molecular weight for both SDS and SBS block copolymers.
