Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	There are disclosed highly anisotropic membranes comprising cellulose nitrate or cellulose nitrate-cellulose acetate mixed ester polymers, and comprising an integral bilayer of a first layer of cells and a second layer of cells, the cells of the first layer being at least 3 times larger (preferably 5+/- 1 times larger) than the cells of the second layer. There is also disclosed a process for making such membranes by casting from a solution of said polymer in a solvent and a non-solvent. The membranes have many uses, e.g. in laboratory and industrial filtration of liquids, bacterial sterilisation etc.
