Abstract From the Canadian patent

The present invention is a process for applying a highly permeable coating on a hollow fiber substrate. The hollow fiber substrate is continuously passed through a polymeric coating solution and withdrawn from the solution through a coating die to form a uniform polymeric solution coating on the outer surface of the hollow fiber. A portion of the solvent from the coating is allowed to evaporate thereby forming a thin dense surface, layer after which the remaining solvent from the coating layer is leached out. The resultant material is a highly permeable coated composite hollow, fiber membrane which can be used in gas and/or liquid separations.
