Abstract

This invention provides a polyamide separation membrane, prepared from high molecular weight polyamide having a repeating unit represented by the formula (I) and a process for separating gaseous mixtures using them. ##STR1## wherein, R is an aliphatic or aromatic organic group derived from dicarboxylic acid or halide. The polyamide separation membrane according to the present invention has a large free volume and good permeation properties such as permeability and permeation selectivity.
