Ultrafiltration membrane prepared from hydrophobic polymers like polysulfone or polyethersulfone (PES) suffers heavy membrane fouling during cross-flow filtration. Inclusion of hydrophilic polymer like SPEES in the membrane will increase the hydrophilicity of the membrane surface, this in turn would slow down the membrane fouling process and thus prolong the service life time of the polymeric membrane...
