Abstract
The present invention relates to improved methods for the preparation of thin film composite membranes by interfacial polymerization, preferably (organic) solvent resistant thin film composite membranes. More in particular the method of the present invention allows for the preparation of thin film composite membranes wherein a thin film is deposited on a porous crosslinked support. Said method comprises the one step solidification, impregnation and crosslinking of the porous support through phase inversion by immersion of the cast membrane polymer film in an (aqueous) solvent comprising a polyfunctional monomers.
