The results presented in this book were obtained owing to the activity of really international group of teams from Australia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Japan,Poland, Russia, Slovenia, United Kingdom and USA. The chapters submitted by the authors were partitioned among four Sections. Before considering the contents of these sections it should be emphasized that many chapters focus on the most relevant problems;without a solution to these problems further progress of membrane gas separation looks doubtful.
Chapters 1 , 4 , 6 and 8 discuss the possible ways to prevent plasticization effects that result in signifi cant reduction in selectivity of separation of mixtures containing active (strongly sorbed) vapours.Transport behaviour of membranes with inner porosity is the subject of Chapters 2 , 3 and 5 . Another approach that permits overcoming the plasticization problem is an application of perfl uorinated polymers that reveal a reduced solubility of hydrocarbon vapours. Different aspects of the use of such membrane materials are considered in Chapters 4 , 6 and 7 .
