New polymers and the relationship between their molecular structure and gas separation performance are crucial in membrane based gas separation. In the study, a range of bisbenzoxazole containing diamines with spirobisindane as building block were synthesized, and consequently, their corresponding four soluble spirobisindane-bisbenzoxazole-polyimides (SPBO-PIs) (5a-6FDA to 5bb-6FDA) were obtained. These SPBO-PIs exhibit superior solubility, brilliant mechanical performance which shows high tensile strengths (about 80 MPa) and attractive elongation at break (7.6–12.8 %), and good thermal stability (Tgup to 491 °C). The SPBO-PIs frompara-amino and symmetric linkages in the polymeric main chains has superior thermal and mechanical properties, slightly lower density (1.24, 1.25vs1.27, 1.29 cm3g−1), higher surface area (561, 437vs364, 318 m2g−1), bigger micropore (5.74, 5.60vs5.53, 5.49 Å), and larger free volume (0.302, 0.284vs0.282, 0.277) than the corresponding mata-amino and asymmetric linkages. The SPBO-PI from amine isomers atpara-linked (5a-6FDA) exhibits better CO2/CH4and CO2/N2separation performance than the SPBO-PI from amine isomers atmeta-linked (5aa-6FDA), meanwhile, the SPBO-PI from symmetric oxazole isomers (5aa-6FDA) shows higher permeability than the asymmetric oxazole isomers (5bb-6FDA). The 5b-6FDA exhibits reasonable anti-plasticization properties, and 97.3 Barrer for CO2permeability and 24.1 of CO2/CH4mixed-gas selectivity at 20 bar. The study about SPBO-PI membranes shed light on molecular design of high performance polyimide and polybenzoxazole-based membranes.
