Hybrid membranes assembled from a polymeric matrix and an inorganic filler are considered one of the most promising membranes for energy-efficient gas separations due to their high performance and low-cost fabrication. Rigid polymer matrices often exhibit lasting porosity and consequently have been gradually employed to fabricate separation membranes of high permeance. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are a key class of fillers that have fueled the exploration of advanced hybrid-membrane technologies for gas separation. In this short review, an evolutional pathway for more advanced MOF/polymer hybrid-membrane morphologies and their modules are highlighted along with state-of-the-art applications. Here, we address key issues such as selecting the appropriate MOF filler and polymer matrix, improving filler/matrix compatibility within hybrid membranes, and, most importantly, how to scale up MOF/polymer hybrid membranes efficiently and economically for large-scale industrial applications.

由聚合物基体和无机填料组装而成的混合膜由于其高性能和低成本制造，被认为是最有前途的节能气体分离膜。刚性聚合物基质通常表现出持久的孔隙率，因此已逐渐用于制造高渗透性的分离膜。金属有机框架（MOF）是一类重要的填料，它推动了先进的混合膜技术用于气体分离的探索。在这篇简短的评论中，重点介绍了用于更高级的MOF /聚合物杂化膜形态及其模块的进化途径以及最新技术。在这里，我们解决了一些关键问题，例如选择合适的MOF填料和聚合物基质，改善混合膜中填料/基质的相容性，
