SiC microporous membranes were prepared by the pyrolysis of thin allyl-hydridopolycarbosilane (AHPCS) films coated, using a combination of slip-casting and dip-coating techniques, on tubular silicon carbide macroporous supports. Combining slip-casting with dip-coating significantly improved the reproducibility in preparing high quality membranes. The membranes prepared, so far, exhibited an ideal H 2 /CO 2 selectivity in the range of 42–96, and a H 2 /CH 4 ideal selectivity in the range of 29–78. Separation factors measured with the same membranes, using equimolar binary mixtures of H 2 in CO 2 and H 2 in CH 4 , were similar to the ideal selectivity values. Steam stability experiments with the membranes lasting 21 days, using an equimolar flowing mixture of He/H 2 O at 200°C, indicated some initial decline in the permeance of He, after which the permeance became stable at these conditions.
