The invention relates to inorganic hollow fibers, to a spinning mass and to a method for producing the same as well as to the use thereof for material transports, for the exchange of gases and in separation procedures. The hollow fibers according to the invention are obtainable by processing a spinning mass to a hollow fiber according to general methods, by curing said fiber thermally, via radiation induction or via chemical induction, and by removing the organic components via pyrolysis. The spinning mass is obtained by hydrolytic polycondensation of hydrolyzable compounds of silicon, aluminum, titanium and zirconium and optionally of co-condensable compounds of the elements Li, Na, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Sn or Pb. The hydrolytic polycondensation is performed by adding water or moisture. If desired, monomers or oligomers which may undergo co-polymerization or (poly)addition, curing catalysts, pore generating additives or compounds of the elements Li, Na, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Sn and Pb which are soluble in the reaction medium are added to the spinning mass.

The invention relates to semipermeable membranes comprising organically modified silicic-acid polycondensates, to a process for preparing them and to their use in gas exchange and in separation techniques, especially in gas separation, dialysis, pervaporation, and other filtration. The membranes of the invention can be flat or tubular and can be manufactured by conventional methods from viscous liquids obtained by hydrolytic polycondensation of organically modified, hydrolyzable silicon compounds containing C&boxH;C double bonds. The membranes are cured by addition polymerization and/or polyaddition of the C&boxH;C double bonds.
