A novel surface modified Polysulfone (PSf) hollow fiber membrane was fabricated via dry–wet phased inversion process. surface modifying macromolecule (SMM) was used as additive in the spinning dope. The surface modified membrane showed large pore size, higher effective surface porosity, contact angl...
