Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of producing a polymeric membrane having a homogeneous porosity throughout the entire polymeric phase. The method comprises the steps of dissolving at least one amphiphillic block copolymer in a solvent to form a casting solution of the block copolymer, and contacting the extruded solution with non-solvent to induce phase separation and thereby producing an integral asymmetric polymeric membrane, wherein the amphiphillic block copolymer is an amphiphillic diblock copolymer, containing blocks of a polar copolymer and blocks of a benzocyclobutene copolymer, and wherein the integral asymmetric polymeric membrane is crosslinked by application of heat or radiation thereby producing a membrane having a homogeneous porosity throughout the entire polymeric phase.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a thermoresponsive filtration membrane, particularly a microfiltration membrane or ultra-filtration membrane, and a corresponding thermoresponsive filtration membrane. The method according to the invention comprises the following method steps: a) a filtration membrane is wetted or coated with a dopamine solution, b) the dopamine of the dopamine solution is polymerised in order to produce a polydopamine layer, and c) the polydopamine-coated filtration membrane is immersed into a coating solution with an end-functionalised poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), and the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) is bound to the polydopamine layer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a polymer membrane with an isoporous, active separation layer, particularly an ultrafiltration membrane or nanofiltration membrane and to a polymer membrane produced or producible according to the invention. The method comprises the following steps: producing a casting solution having at least one solvent in which at least one amphiphilic block copolymer with at least two different polymer blocks and at least one carbohydrate are dissolved, spreading out the casting solution to form a film, allowing a part of the at least one solvent near the surface to evaporate during a waiting time, precipitating a membrane by immersing the film in a precipitation bath comprising at least one non-solvent for the block copolymer.
