Abstract

An aromatic polyimide composite membrane having a satisfactory gas-permeating property and an excellent gas-separating property comprises an aromatic polyimide porous membrane substrate and at least one coating layer which has been prepared (A) by coating at least one surface of the substrate with a dilute dope solution containing 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a soluble aromatic polyimide and/or polyamic acid dissolved in a solvent which consists essentially of 100 parts by weight of a base component incapable of dissolving therein the substrate in an amount of 3% by weight or more and 0 to 15 parts by weight of an additional component capable of dissolving therein the 5% by weight or more of the aromatic polymeric material and compatible with the base component; and (B) by gradually evaporating the solvent from the coated dilute dope solution layer.
