    Abstract: A gas separation membrane for separating carbon dioxide from a mixed gas containing the carbon dioxide contains an organopolysiloxane containing a first a structural unit represented by the following formula (1a) and a first b structural unit represented by the following formula (1b).


    [In the formula (1a) and the formula (1b), R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkenyloxy group, an aryl group, or an aryloxy group. X 1 represents a crosslinked chain containing an amide bond, and is shared by two of the first b structural units. * represents a bond, n and m are molar ratios of the first a structural unit and the first b structural unit.]

    Abstract: The invention relates to nanofilament-coated membranes with hierarchical porous structures comprising a microporous polymer support membrane having through-going pores with a nominal pore diameter in the range from 0.2 µm to 50 µm and a superhydrophobic fluorine-free nanoporous layer having through-going pores with a nominal pore diameter in the range from 5 nm to 200 nm provided on said support membrane and comprising or consisting of a porous network of polysiloxane nanofilaments.
    In more specific embodiments of said nanofilament-coated porous membranes, the microporous support membrane comprises or consists of a polymer which is selected from the group consisting of polyethersulfone (PES), cellulose acetate (CA), polypropylene (PP), polyamide (nylon), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyvinyl difluoride (PVDF) or polyethylene (PE).
    A second aspect of the invention relates to the use of these nanofilament-coated porous membranes for membrane distillation, in particular in a process of desalination of saline or distillation of contaminated water or extraction of water from waste water or extraction of other volatile components from a feed solution and to a device, in particular a membrane distillation device, comprising these nanofilament-coated porous membranes.
    A further aspect of the invention relates to a method for preparing these nanofilament-coated porous membranes.
