| Abstract: | Polyvinylidene fluoride-graft-polyethylene glycol methyl acrylate (PVDF-g-PEGMA) was prepared by grafting PEGMA onto PVDF using a homogeneous irradiation grafting method. After incorporating various concentrations of eugenol, a natural antioxidant component of clove oil, the membranes were fabricated through non-solvent induced phase separation. The results indicated that the addition of eugenol did not alter the inherent properties of the membrane but slightly reduced the pore size and water flux. The cyclic flux test showed that eugenol did not compromise the anti-fouling performance of the membrane, with the flux recovery ratio exceeding 93%. The antioxidant performance test revealed that eugenol enhanced the membrane's capacity to remove free radicals and imparted oxidation resistance in NaClO solution, making the modified membrane suitable for use in oxidizing environments. This study successfully demonstrated a simple method to prepare a bifunctional membrane with anti-fouling and antioxidant properties, potentially extending its service life and applicability in oxidative contexts.
