Abstract

In this research work, porous PES membranes were initially pre-heated for certain duration of time and then surface-modified to reject the MgSO4 salt solutions through self-adsorption of polyelectrolytes. From the experimental work, higher membrane salt rejection capability can be obtained when the number of polyelectrolyte bilayers is increased. The images of the cross-sectional morphology of modified and non-modified membranes were obtained using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). All modified membranes showed relatively lower contact angle values.
