Thin‐film composite membranes containing photoreactive groups have been developed. The presence of these groups facilitates the subsequent photochemical conversion of the membrane to include a range of different chemical moieties. For example, a cationic or an anionic membrane can be made from the same initial composite membrane. In this paper the selection of an appropriate photolabile group is investigated.
