Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'une membrane polyoléfine, hydrophobe et intégralement asymétrique comportant une structure de support microporeuse, à pores ouverts et spongieuse ainsi qu'une couche de séparation présentant une structure plus dense, au moyen d'un processus de préparation en phase liquide-liquide induit thermiquement. Une solution comportant au moins une polyoléfine est extrudée pour constituer un corps moulé. Le solvant utilisé porte la température de séparation d'une solution comportant 25 % en poids des polyoléfines dans ledit solvant à une température supérieure à la température de solidification d'approximativement 10 à 70 ·C. Après l'étape de démoulage, le corps moulé est refroidi jusqu'à la séparation des phases et la solidification de la phase riche en polymères, au moyen d'une substance liquide de refroidissement ne dissolvant pas le polymère à des températures allant jusqu'à la température d'outillage. La membrane intégralement asymétrique ainsi produite présente une porosité supérieure à 30 % volumétrique et pouvant atteindre 75 % volumétrique, et comprend une couche de support microporeuse, à pores ouverts, spongieuse, exempte de macrovides et pourvue de pores isotropes centraux, ainsi qu'une couche de séparation disposée sur au moins une de ses surfaces et comportant des pores dont le diamètre moyen maximal < 100 nm. De préférence, cette membrane est employée pour des processus de séparation gazeuse ou de transfert gazeux et en particulier pour engendrer une oxygénation sanguine.
