Polymeric Materials for Filtration and Purification

Dear Colleagues,

Deteriorating air and water quality, and their associated impacts on health and the environment, are a significant concern worldwide. This raises the importance of advanced materials development for environmental health and safety. This Special Issue aims to cover current research progress on polymeric materials applied to air filtration and liquid separation, which will be of great value for those who are exploring novel approaches to filtration and purification. Special emphasis will be placed on but not limited to the following:

-The design/engineering of filtration media;

-The synthesis of novel materials used for filtration;

-The characterization of filtration media and filter products;

-The evaluation of filtration performance;

-The separation and purification of particulate matters, gaseous matters, bio-aerosols, etc.;

-Product applications of filter materials.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
