Abstract
An asymmetric membrane is formed using a mixture of two or more different polymers including at least one type of polyimide. It is thereby possible to produce a gas separation membrane with low permeation resistance (a high permeation rate) for permeate gases passing through the porous layer of the membrane, which also maintains a practical level of mechanical strength of the membrane and has excellent water resistance and hot water resistance.
