Abstract

A composite semipermeable membrane having improved chlorine tolerance, produced by employing the development of a thin film polymer layer by precipitation of the polymer at the interface of an aqueous (or organic) liquid layer; and an aqueous emulsion polymer layer at or near the surface of a semiporous support or substrate. No chemical reaction is involved.
