Abstract

A separation membrane comprising a polyether polymer having a weight-average molecular weight of 104 to 107 and obtained by polymerizing an oxirane compound of the formula (a): wherein R is a hydrogen atom;an alkyl group, an alkyl group having a halogen atom, or—CH2O(CH2CH2O)k—R′ (R′ is a group selected from an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group and an aralkyl group; k is from 0 to 12); oran ethylenically unsaturated group, a reactive silicon-containing group or a methylepoxy-containing group, is excellent in mechanical strength and flexibility.
