Im ersten Teil wird die Synthese von mesopor{\"o}sen Polybenzimidazol (PBI) auf der Basis einer Templatierungsmethode vorgestellt. Auf der Grundlage kommerzieller Monomere und Silikatnanopartikel sowie eines neuen Vernetzers wurde ein Polymer-Silikat-Hybridmaterial aufgebaut. Das Herausl{\"o}sen des Silikats mit Ammoniumhydrogendifluorid f{\"u}hrt zu mesopor{\"o}sen Polybenzimidazolen mit spherischen Poren von 9 bis 11 nm Durchmesser. Die Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der beobachteten Porosit{\"a}t vom Massenverh{\"a}ltnis Silikat zu Polymer wurde ebenso untersucht wie die Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der Porosit{\"a}t vom Vernetzergehalt. Die Porosit{\"a}t vollvernetzter Proben zeigt eine lineare Abh{\"a}ngigkeit vom Verh{\"a}ltnis Silikat zu Polymer bis zu einem Grenzwert von 1. Wird der Grenzwert {\"u}berschritten, ist teilweiser Porenkollaps zu beobachten. Die Abh{\"a}ngigkeit der Porosit{\"a}t vom Vernetzergehalt bei festem Silikatgehalt ist nichtlinear. Oberhalb einer kritischen Vernetzerkonzentration wird eine komplette Replikation der Nanopartikel gefunden. Ist die Vernetzerkonzentration dagegen kleiner als der kritische Wert, so ist der v{\"o}llige Kollaps einiger Poren bei Stabilit{\"a}t der verbleibenden Poren zu beobachten. Ein komplett unpor{\"o}ses PBI resultiert bei Abwesenheit des Vernetzers. Die mesopor{\"o}sen PBI-Netzwerke konnten kontrolliert mit Phosphors{\"a}ure beladen werden. Die erhaltenen Addukte wurden auf ihre Protonenleitf{\"a}higkeit untersucht. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass die Nutzung der vordefinierten Morphologie im Vergleich zu einem unstrukturierten PBI in h{\"o}heren Leitf{\"a}higkeiten resultiert. Durch die vernetzte Struktur war des Weiteren gen{\"u}gend mechanische Stabilit{\"a}t gegeben, um die Addukte reversibel und bei sehr guten Leitf{\"a}higkeiten bis zu Temperaturen von 190°C bei 0\% relativer Feuchtigkeit zu untersuchen. Dies ist f{\"u}r unstrukturierte Phosphors{\"a}ure/PBI - Addukte aus linearem PBI nicht m{\"o}glich. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit wird die Synthese intrinsisch mikropor{\"o}ser Polyamide und Polyimide vorgestellt. Das Konzept intrinsisch mikropor{\"o}ser Polymere konnte damit auf weitere Polymerklassen ausgeweitet werden. Als zentrales, strukturinduzierendes Motiv wurde 9,9'-Spirobifluoren gew{\"a}hlt. Dieses Molek{\"u}l ist leicht und vielf{\"a}ltig zu di- bzw. tetrafunktionellen Monomeren modifizierbar. Dabei wurden bestehende Synthesevorschriften modifiziert bzw. neue Vorschriften entwickelt. Ein erster Schwerpunkt innerhalb des Kapitels lag in der Synthese und Charakterisierung von l{\"o}slichen, intrinsisch mikropor{\"o}sen, aromatischen Polyamid und Polyimid. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass das Beobachten von Mikroporosit{\"a}t stark von der molekularen Architektur und der Verarbeitung der Polymere abh{\"a}ngig ist. Die Charakterisierung der Porosit{\"a}t erfolgte unter Nutzung von Stickstoffsorption, Kleinwinkelr{\"o}ntgenstreuung und Molecular Modeling. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Proben stark vom Umgebungsdruck abh{\"a}ngigen Deformationen unterliegen. Die starke Quellung der Proben w{\"a}hrend des Sorptionsvorgangs konnte durch Anwendung des "dual sorption" Modells, also dem Auftreten von Porenf{\"u}llung und dadurch induzierter Henry-Sorption, erkl{\"a}rt werden. Der zweite Schwerpunkt des Kapitels beschreibt die Synthese und Charakterisierung mikropor{\"o}ser Polyamid- und Polyimidnetzwerke. W{\"a}hrend Polyimidnetzwerke auf Spirobifluorenbasis ausgepr{\"a}gte Mikroporosit{\"a}t und spezifische Oberfl{\"a}chen von ca. 1100 m²/g aufwiesen, war die Situation f{\"u}r entsprechende Polyamidnetzwerke abweichend. Mittels Stickstoffsorption konnte keine Mikroporosit{\"a}t nachgewiesen werden, jedoch konnte mittels SAXS eine innere Grenzfl{\"a}che von ca. 300 m²/g nachgewiesen werden. Durch die in dieser Arbeit gezeigten Experimente kann die Grenze zwischen Polymeren mit hohem freien Volumen und mikropor{\"o}sen Polymeren somit etwas genauer gezogen werden. ausgepr{\"a}gte Mikroporosit{\"a}t kann nur in extrem steifen Strukturen nachgewiesen werden. Die Kombination der Konzepte "Mesoporosit{\"a}t durch Templatierung" und "Mikroporosit{\"a}t durch strukturierte Monomere" hatte ein hierarchisch strukturiertes Polybenzimidazol zum Ergebnis. Die Pr{\"a}senz einer Strukturierung im molekularen Maßstab konnte SAXS bewiesen werden. Das so strukturierte Polybenzimidazol zeichnete sich durch eine h{\"o}here Protonenleitf{\"a}higkeit im Vergleich zu einem rein mesopor{\"o}sen PBI aus. Der letzte Teil der Arbeit besch{\"a}ftigte sich mit der Entwicklung einer neuen Synthesemethode zur Herstellung von Polybenzimidazol. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass lineares PBI in einer eutektischen Salzschmelze aus Lithium- und Kaliumchlorid synthetisiert werden kann. Die Umsetzung der spirobifluorenbasierten Monomere zu l{\"o}slichem oder vernetztem PBI ist in der Salzschmelze m{\"o}glich.}, language = {de} } @article{GoebelHesemannWeberetal.2009, author = {Goebel, Ronald and Hesemann, Peter and Weber, Jens and Moeller, El{\´e}onore and Friedrich, Alwin and Beuermann, Sabine and Taubert, Andreas}, title = {Surprisingly high, bulk liquid-like mobility of silica-confined ionic liquids}, issn = {1463-9076}, doi = {10.1039/B821833a}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Mesoporous silica monoliths were prepared by the sol - gel technique and. lled with 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium [Emim]-X (X = dicyanamide [N(CN)(2)], ethyl sulfate [EtSO4], thiocyanate [SCN], and triflate [TfO]) ionic liquids (ILs) using a methanol-IL exchange technique. The structure and behavior of the ILs inside the silica monoliths were studied using X-ray scattering, nitrogen sorption, IR spectroscopy, solid-state NMR, and thermal analysis. DSC finds shifts in both the glass transition temperature and melting points (where applicable) of the ILs. Glass transition and melting occur well below room temperature. There is thus no conflict with the NMR and IR data, which show that the ILs are as mobile at room temperature as the bulk (not confined) ILs. The very narrow line widths of the NMR spectra suggest that the ILs in our materials have the highest mobility reported for confined ILs so far. As a result, our data suggest that it is possible to generate IL/silica hybrid materials (ionogels) with bulk-like properties of the IL.

The carbon materials derived from these different carbohydrates are similar in terms of particle size and chemical composition, possessing relatively high surface areas from 44 to 155 m(2) g(-1) after ionothermal processing, which can be significantly increased to > 350 m(2) g(-1) by further thermal treatment (e. g. post-carbonization at 750 degrees C). CO(2) and N(2) sorption analysis, combined with Hg intrusion porosimetry, reveals a promising hierarchical pore structuring to these carbon materials. The ionic liquid [Bmim][FeCl(4)] has a triple role: it acts as both a soft template to generate the characterized pore structuring, solvent and as a catalyst resulting in enhanced ionothermal carbon yields. Importantly from a process point of view, the ionic liquid can be successfully recovered and reused.

Accordingly, the average particle size of the hybrid clay adsorbent decreased from over 200 to 100 pm. The hybrid clay adsorbent is a highly efficient adsorbent for heavy metals. With an initial metal concentration of 1 mg/L, the hybrid clay adsorbent reduces the Cd2+, Ni2+, and Pb2+ concentration in aqueous solution to <= 4, <= 7 and <= 20 mu g/L, respectively, from the first minute to over 300 min using a fixed bed containing 2 g of adsorbent and a flow rate of approximate to 7 mL/min. These values are (with the exception of Pb2+) in line with the WHO permissible limits for heavy metal ions. In a cocktail solution of Cd2+, and Ni2+, the hybrid clay shows a reduced rate of uptake but an increased adsorption capacity.

The structural models were initially built up from the single-crystal X-ray structure determination of IFP-5 (a cobalt center and 2-methylimidazolate-4-amide-5-imidate linker based framework) and were optimized by using density functional theory calculations. Substitution on position 2 of the linker (R = Cl, Br, and Et) in the isostructural IFP-11, -12, and -13 allowed variation of the potential pore window in 1D hexagonal channels (3.8 to 1.7 angstrom A).
