Advanced Polymer Membranes
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Today, polymeric membranes are widely used in a range of industrial applications, such as desalination, wastewater treatment, biopurification/separation, solvent purification/recovery, gas and liquid phase pollutant capture, and gas separations. However, there are still drawbacks that limit the practical application of current membranes. This has prompted researchers to improve and address the shortcomings of polymeric membranes through advanced material development by (1) modifying the intrinsic membrane material, (2) combing inorganic materials with base polymeric materials (mixed matrix membranes), and (3) development of responsive or multifunctional membrane.
In the scope of this Special Issue, “Advanced polymer membrane”, we aim to cover all aspects of advanced polymer-based membranes as well as applications of these membranes in industrial processes.
In particular, the topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Advanced polymer membranes;
- Membrane fabrication/modification;
- Advanced membrane material;
- Membrane application;
- Responsive membrane and multifunctional membrane;
- Polymer–inorganic composite membrane.
