Advanced Porous Polymers: Synthesis, Characterisations and Applications
This special issue belongs to the section “Materials Chemistry“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Porous polymers are a wide-ranging class of porous material built from small organic molecules. They are easily functionalisable and have high good thermal and chemical stabilities, and high surface areas. They have a wide range of applications in gas storage, capture and separations; catalysis; energy storage; sensing; and much more.
This Special Issue aims to present some of the most recent progress in the area of porous polymer synthesis, characterisation and their applications.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
