Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your original research work or review article to this Special Issue entitled “Crystalline Porous Membranes”. Crystalline porous materials (CPMs) show a fascinating application prospect in membrane technology due to their uniform and regular pore structures. In recent years, crystalline porous membranes (CPMBs) based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), porous organic cages (POCs), hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), and classical zeolites have attracted significant attention in fields such as precise separation, high-sensitive sensing, space-confined catalysis, efficiency ion/molecular transport, etc.
This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for authors to publish their latest research results on the preparations and applications of crystalline porous membranes. Potential relevant themes to this research topic may include but are not limited to the following:
- Prepared methods of crystalline porous membranes (preparation technology, scalable production, etc.);
- Structure and morphology control of crystalline porous membranes;
- Preparation of new crystalline porous materials;
- Performance of crystalline porous membranes (permeability, selectivity, stability, etc.);
- Membrane processes;
- Computational studies on crystalline porous membranes;
- Application of crystalline porous membranes (gas/ion/organic molecules separation, sensing, catalysis, ion/molecular transport, etc.).
We look forward to receiving your outstanding work for this Special Issue.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Membranes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
