Abstract

A Pd/α-Al2O3 composite membrane was prepared on a porous α-Al2O3 disk via the thermal decomposition of bis(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)Pd(II), Pd(hfac)2. Pd(hfac)2 was dissolved in supercritical CO2 at 303 K, supplied to the substrate, and thermally decomposed at 403 and 443 K. The decomposition of Pd(hfac)2 at 443 K resulted in a sufficient pore filling of substrate with Pd as well as the formation of a thin Pd top layer. The hydrogen flux through this membrane was about 1.7 times than that of a electro-less plating Pd membrane with about 20 μm thick. Hydrogen permeation was governed by the solution-diffusion mechanism which gave a high separation selectivity.
