Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
193 words
In a method of separating oxygen from air with a gas separating membrane, the improvement wherein the gas separating membrane is one which has high permeability coefficient for oxygen and high separation coefficient, and which is prepared from a fluorine-containing acrylate or methacrylate polymer comprising: (i) 70 to 100% by weight of a structural unit represented by the formula ##STR11## wherein R is --H or --CH 3 , l is an interger of from 1 to 3 and n is 0 or an interger of from 1 to 5, and/or a structural unit represented by the formula ##STR12## wherein R is as defined above, X 1 is --H or --OH, X 2 is --H, --F or --CF(CF 3 ) 2 , p and q are each 0 or 1, and r is an interger of from 1 to 10, and (ii) 0 to 30% by weight of a structural unit represented by the formula ##STR13## wherein R is as defined above, and Y is --H or a group represented by --(CH 2 ) s Y 1 (wherein Y 1 is --COOH, --OH, ##STR14## and s is an interger of from 1 to 5).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
53 words
A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the polymer is a copolymer comprising about 80 to about 98% by weight of the structural unit of the formula (a) and/or the structural unit of the formula (b) and about 20 to about 2% by weight of the structural unit of the formula (c).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the polymer consists essentially of the structural unit of the formula (a) and/or the structural unit of the formula (b).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
147 words
A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the polymer contains one or more functional groups derived from the structural unit of the formula (c) and/or the structural unit of the formula (b) wherein X 1 is --OH and p is 1, and selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, carboxyl and epoxy, the functional groups having been aleady crosslinked by a crosslinking agent capable of crosslinking the functional groups, and the crosslinking agent being a compound having at least two amino, epoxy or isocyanate groups when the functional group is carboxyl; or being a compound having at least two isocyanate or acid halide groups when the functional group is hydroxyl; or being a compound having at least two amino groups, prepolymers of amino resins, methylolated melamine, BF 3 , a compound capable of producing BF 3 or an acid anhydride when the functional group is epoxy.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
96 words
A method as defined in claim 1 the crosslinking agent is ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, triethylenetetramine, triethylenetetramine, or diaminodiphenylmethane, butylenediglycidyl ether, bisphenol A diglycidyl ether, hexamethylene diisocyanate trimer or tolylene diisocyanate when the functional group is carboxyl; or hexamethylene diisocyanate trimer, tolylene diisocyanate, hexamethylene dicarbonyl chloride, adipoyl chloride, terephthaloyl chloride when the functional group is hydroxyl; or ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, triethylenetetramine, triethylenetetramine, diaminodiphenylmethane, prepolymers of amino resins, methylolated melamine, BF 3 , C 6 H 5 --N═NBF 4 , BF 3 C 2 H 5 NH 2 , phthalic anhydride or maleic anhydride when the functional group is epoxy.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
