We fabricate a novel cellulose acetate (CA) ultrafiltration membrane modified by block copolymer F127-b- PDMAEMA, which is synthesized using F127 and DMAEMA via the ARGET ATRP method. Compared to conventional ultrafiltration membranes, the incorporation of both F127 and PDMAEMA can not only readily increase the hydrophilicity of the membrane, but also exhibit stimuli-responsiveness to temperature and pH. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) are employed to analyze the structure of the F127-b-PDMAEMA. The membrane properties are evaluated via scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging, porosity test, automatic target recognition Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), water contact angle test and permeation test. The results indicate that the F127-b-PDMAEMA is an excellent pore agent,

which contributes to an enhancement of the membrane in sensitivity to temperature and pH. The modified membrane also exhibits lower water contact angle (64.5 degrees), which is attributed to the good anti-fouling performance and high water permeation.
