The porous support polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) with a salting out based on the hollow fiber membrane polyethyleneimine (PEI) and polyvinylsulfonic acid (PVSA) by coating with by phase separated and pressurization (PSP) method to produce a multilayer membrane. The resulting membranes were characterized under the various conditions, such as the heat treatment temperature, coating concentration, feed concentration, cross-linking time and cross-link agent concentration in terms of flux and rejection rate for NaCl 100 ppm solution at 4 atm. The best results were PEI 20,000 ppm and PVSA 1,000 ppm, PEI 15% with a 2% malic acid aqueous solution coated by PSP method the hollow fiber membrane heat-treated for 1 minute showed flux 24.3 LMH, the rejection of 82.1%.
