The current image by Svetlana Viktorovna Kononova, Denis Sapegin, and colleagues represents phase heterogeneity between sulfonated polyimide and poly(amide-imide) polymer phases in the composite film with 7:3 polyimide to poly(amide-imide) weight ratio. Most likely, in this composite, a three-dimensional crystallizing network of polyimide is formed around poly(amide-imide) which is to form an amorphous phase. This assumption was confirmed by the data of the energy-dispersive analysis since it is in the region of the network structure sulfur atoms were detected, which are present in this composite only in the structure of sulfonated polyimide.

Polybenz‐3,1‐oxazinone‐4 (PBOZ) films are prepared via the thermal rearrangement of poly[(methylene‐bis‐anthranilamide) 4,4′‐diphenyloxidicarboxylic acid] (PAA) films by heating to 300 °C. PAA is synthesized by low‐temperature polycondensation. The PBOZ film exhibits excellent mechanical properties and a high glass‐transition temperature. Conversion of PAA to PBOZ leads to an increase in the fractional free volume as a result of thermal dehydration and cyclization during membrane formation and due to the removal of residual solvent. The excess free volume in the PBOZ film is approximately 3–4% of the total volume. The gas permeability and selectivity of the PBOZ film is higher than that of the PAA film. The thermal rearrangement of polymers is recognized as a suitable method to improve separation efficiency.
