Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a gas separation membrane having more excellent gas separation performance than a conventional gas separation membrane. The gas separation membrane of the present invention has an intermediate layer on a polymer membrane substrate, and has a separation layer on the intermediate layer, where the intermediate layer has a non-porous structure, the separation layer is a silica-based separation layer, and the silica-based separation layer has a different chemical composition or layer structure in a thickness direction.

Abstract: A composite semipermeable membrane capable of forming, on a surface of a porous support in a highly reproducible manner, a separation layer that is extremely thin and that exhibits superior separability. It provides, on a surface of a porous support, a composite semipermeable membrane that has an organic/inorganic hybrid separation layer that is extremely thin and that exhibits superior separability. A method for manufacturing a composite semipermeable membrane includes forming, on a surface of a porous support, a separation layer containing a cross-linked condensate having a siloxane bond by bringing an organic solution that contains an organic silicon compound containing three or more reactive functional groups, each of which is at least one type selected from a hydrolyzable group and a hydroxyl group, into contact with water or an aqueous solution on the porous support, and by performing interfacial polycondensation of the organic silicon compound.

Abstract: The present invention provides a composite separation membrane with improved separation performance, particularly with an increased permeation flux. The composite separation membrane of the present invention includes a porous support (2) and a separation functional layer (1) formed on this support (2). The separation functional layer (1) is a polyamide membrane having a “double-folded structure” including a first layer portion (11) with a plurality of projections (15a, (15b . . . ) and a second layer portion (12) that covers at least one or some (15c and 15d) of these projections. Some projections (15a and 15b) of the first layer portion (11) extend upward and branch to form the second layer portion (12). There is a vacant space (13) between the first layer portion (11) and the second layer portion (12).
