The performance of polymeric membranes for gas separation is given by the free volume. Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) is an accepted technique for investigation of free volume; the ortho-Positronium (o-Ps) lifetime is directly related to the mean hole size. PALS was done on amorphous Teflon AF 1600 and AF 2400. (copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene and 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxole units). From the data mean hole size and width were calculated. Both polymers show large o-Ps lifetimes (=> large hole sizes) and glass transition near the expected values. AF 2400 shows a non-linear temperature dependence of the ortho-positronium lifetime, extraordinarily large mean values of o-Ps lifetimes and the widths of the lifetime distributions. Explanations will be discussed in relation to the microstructure of the copolymer.
