CHARGED ISOPOROUS MATERIALS FOR ELECTROSTATIC SEPARATIONS
Multiblock polymer materials, methods of preparing, and using to separate proteins, nucleic acids, other biological or other biomolecules, compounds, or solutes, with high fluxes through electrostatic interactions where the self-assembled block polymer materials contain at least one of macro, meso, or micro pores, and at least some of the pores are isoporous, and at least one polymer block contains stationary electrostatic charge, or reactive functional groups to provide large surface areas that are charged in isoporous structure.
1 . A charged, self-assembled block polymer material, containing at least one of macro, meso, or micro pores, at least some of which are isoporous, said material comprising at least one polymer block which contains stationary electrostatic charge, or reactive functional groups, said material having major, minor and interstitial regions, partially or quantitatively functionalized by a charged moiety on the functional group to produce a stationary charge on the material, to provide a large surface area that is charged and an isoporous structure for the separation of proteins, nucleic acids, other biological or other biomolecules, compounds, or solutes, with high fluxes.
