The layer-by-layer (LBL) polyelectrolyte deposition was applied on polyethersulfone (PES) hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane to prepare nanofiltration (NF) membrane for low pressure water softening application for the first time. The effects of polyelectrolyte type and molecular weight (MW), depo...
