Membranes of polyethersulfone (PESU) and poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) are commonly used for ultrafiltration applications. We investigate the rheological and diffusion properties of solutions which are used for membrane fabrication via a non-solvent induced phase separation process. The polymer solutions are composed of PESU and PVP as well as a mixture of the solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and the non-solvent glycerol. In this work, the influence of glycerol is studied. The addition of glycerol leads to a larger viscosity, a larger average relaxation time and a stronger tendency of demixing. The increase of viscosity is explained by the increase of the monomeric friction coefficient with increasing glycerol concentration. Dynamic light scattering data reveal the existence of two diffusive processes with different time scales in the presence of glycerol. This result is discussed taking into account the phase behaviour of the solution and the solvent quality.
