Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymer materials with adsorption properties are an important branch of polymers and play crucial roles in a huge number of research areas: wastewater treatment, soil remediation, environmental optimization, efficient separation of small organic molecules and green catalysis, etc. For these reasons, research on polymer materials with adsorption properties has been a hot topic in recent years, although there are still some difficulties in their application.
This Special Issue focuses on the latest research on polymer materials with adsorption properties, covering all aspects of porous organic polymer and applications. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Ion exchange and chelating resins;
- Multifunctional polymer adsorbent;
- Porous organic polymer;
- Graft and cross-linkable polymer with adsorption property;
- Polymer with special structure and superior/improved adsorption properties;
- Other polymer-derived adsorbents;
- Modification of polymer adsorbent;
- Method for evaluating adsorption property of polymer material;
- Theory and simulation of polymeric adsorbent.

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. Polymers 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 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.
