Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ion-track technique allows the fabrication of a wide range of polymeric membranes with specific functionalities. Ion-track membranes are characterized by precisely controllable and reproducible pore geometry, pore density (1-109 pore/cm2 and pore size (nm-µm) that ensured its wide application in precision separation, membrane distillation, filtration, catalysis, electrochemical sensors, as templates for nanostructure synthesis, as response switching membrane to changing temperature, pH and other.
This Special Issue seeks contributions from all both basic and applied research groups that are currently engaged in the ion-track membrane research and development to reflect the current state and the cutting-edge progress of ion-track membranes preparation for the different processes and applications.
