A procedure for the measurement of ionic transport numbers, with the aid of current‐carrying electrodes that are introduced into a hyperfiltration cell is suggested. This procedure is suitable for adsorbed polymer layers and dynamic membranes. For membranes adequately described by the fixed charge model, allowing for ion‐association, a simple relation between transport numbers and salt rejection is derived. This leads to a test for the mechanism of salt rejection.
