Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gas and liquid purification methods are becoming increasingly vital worldwide in response to rising concerns regarding contamination resulting from industrialization. Eliminating pollution from gas and liquid is a crucial aspect in protecting the environment. The design and implementation of polymer-based films/membranes for gas and liquid separations are crucial for contemporary approaches. This Special Issue, “Polymer Membranes for Gas and Liquid Filtration Techniques”, primarily covers polymer materials as membrane/film/separator materials for gas and liquid filtration and purification systems. The scope of interest includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Polymer-based blend membranes for gas and liquid filtration;
- Polymer-based organic/inorganic composite membranes for gas and liquid filtration;
- Biopolymers and their composites for gas and liquid filtration;
- Polymer-based aerogels for gas and liquid filtration;
- MOF and COF for gas and liquid filtration;
- Oil/water separation.

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.
