Also claimed is a process for the production of PAN capillary membrane with a comonomer content of less than 1 wt%. USE - Used as an osmosis membrane, especially in capillary osmometers (claimed). ADVANTAGE - An improved capillary membrane with a small pore size, a narrow pore size distribution and a high pore density, combined with good wettability and good stability in typical membrane osmometry solvents, e.g. water, ether, toluene, THF, dioxan, acetone, trichloroethylene.de608620660671patent1995-19546836
