A charged surface modifying macromolecule (cSMM) was synthesized, characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy and blended into the casting solution of cellulose acetate (CA) to prepare surface modified UF membranes by phase inversion technique. With an increasing cSMM additive content from 1 to 4 wt%, pure water flux (PWF) and water content (WC) were increases whereas the hydraulic resistance decreases. Surface characteristic study reveals that the surface hydrophilicity increased in cSMM modified CA membranes. The pore size and surface porosity of the 4 wt% cSMM blend CA membranes increases to 41.26 A and 0.015%, respectively. Similarly, the molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of the membranes ranged from 20 to 45 kDa, depending on the various compositions of the prepared membranes. Lower flux decline rate (47.2%) and higher flux recovery ratio (FRR) (89.0%), exhibited by 4 wt% cSMM blend membranes demonstrated its fouling resistant characteristic compared to pristine CA membrane.
