Abstract
The discovery that highly anisotropic membranes, e.g. with a degree of anisotropy of five can for the very first time be produced by the dry phase inversion process by a very specific combination of polymers, solvent and non-solvent, optionally along with plasticizers and modifiers, all of which separately are known in membrane technology, the polymers consisting essentially of cellulose nitrate and cellulose nitrate-cellulose acetate mixed ester polymers, the solvent being methyl formate, propylene oxide, or mixtures thereof, and the non-solvents being isopropyl alcohol, t-butyl alcohol or mixtures thereof, is disclosed.
