Abstract

Membrane forming polymers are converted to hydrophilic polymeric membranes by (a) grafting a polyoxyethylene chain to a membrane forming polymer structure and thereafter forming a membrane; (b) coating a membrane with a polymer to which a polyoxyethylene chain has been grafted; or (c) grafting in situ a polyoxyethylene chain to a formed membrane polymer.
