Novel polymer blend based on polyaniline (PANI) and polybenzimidazole (PBI).
Spectroscopic studies revealed strong interaction between PANI and PBI.
Very high ideal selectivities of the following gas pairs H2/N2, O2/N2 and CO2/N2.
Doping of blend with HCl has significant effect on gas transport properties.
Sorption capacities decreased with higher amount of PANI and upon doping.
