Literature searches identified poly (vinyl isobutyl ether) as the most promising candidate barrier material for oxygen enrichment membranes. A membrane with an oxygen/nitrogen selectivity of 6.2 and a stability at 60/sup 0/C was developed. However, this membrane is fragile. Membranes using poly (2-hexyne) and poly (6-methyl-2-heptyne) were also made. (DLC)
