bβCDs polyelectrolyte multilayers were assembled onto hydrolyzed PAN membranes.
LbL assembling and degradation was monitored by XPS, FTIR and labelling with FA.
Surface coating is degraded in 8 h but interior coating remains more than 25 days.
TR removal from water was successfully accomplished by bβCDs/PAN membranes.
Maximum TR release from multilayered membranes takes place in the first 24 h.
