摘要
Amorphous and crystalline poly （chloro-p-xytylene） （PPX C） membranes are constructed by using a novel com- putational technique, that is, a combined method of NVT＋NPT-molecular dynamics （MD） and gradually reducing the size （GRS） methods. The related free volumes are defined as homology clusters. Then the sorption and the permeation of gases in PPX C polymers are studied using grand canonical Monte Carlo （GCMC） and NVT-MD methods. The results show that the crystalline PPX C membranes provide smaller free volumes for absorbing or transferring gases relative to the amorphous PPX C area. The gas sorption in PPX C membranes mainly belongs to the physical one, and H bonds can appear obviously in the amorphous area. By cluster analyzing on the mean square displacement of gases, we find that gases walk along the x axis in the crystalline area and walk randomly in the amorphous area. The calculated permeability coefficients are close to the experimental data.
