Abstract

An ultrathin film composed substantially of silicon-containing polyurea comprising polyaddition bonded units derived from (A) at least one polyamine selected from the group consisting of silicon-containing polyamines and hydrocarbon-type polyamines, each of said polyamines containing at least two primary or secondary amino groups in the molecule, and (B) at least one polyisocyanate compound selected from the group consisting of silicon-containing polyisocyanates and hydrocarbon-type polyisocyanates, each of said polyisocyanates having at least two isocyanate groups in the molecular chains; provided that when the polyisocyanate compound is the hydrocarbon-type polyisocyanate alone, at least one of the selected polyamines is a silicon-containing polyamine containing at least one terminal amino group in the molecule. A composite structure composed of a microporous supporting film and the ultrathin film supported thereon is useful for the production of a gaseous mixture containing a specified gas in a high concentration from a mixture of two or more gases including said specified gas, and is prepared by subjecting the polyamine and the polyisocyante compound to interfacial polyaddition reaction on a microporous supporting film to form an ultrathin film composed substantially of a silicon-containing polyurea on the microporous supporting film.
