Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
"Advanced Polymers for Membrane Technology" is a comprehensive review of the latest developments in polymer-based membranes for various applications, such as water purification, gas separation, and fuel cells. Polymer-based membranes have become increasingly important in various fields due to their unique properties, such as high selectivity, high permeability, and low energy consumption. The Special Issue covers a wide range of topics, including the structure and properties of polymers, the synthesis and modification of polymer membranes, and the characterization and testing of membrane performance. Additionally, the SI explores the challenges and future prospects of polymer-based membranes in various fields.
