Facilitated transport of CO2 across hyperthin PEMs with fixed sites has been demonstrated. A series of polycations bearing pendant groups of varying basicity were synthesized and used with poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) to fabricate PEMs. The apparent dependency of facilitated transport of CO2 on the basicity of fixed sites will be presented and briefly discussed. These findings provide a strategy to enhance CO2 permeability under practical operating conditions.
