Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Further to the success of the Special Issue of Polymers "Advanced Polymeric Materials for Membrane Technology", we are delighted to reopen the Special Issue, now entitled "Advanced Polymeric Materials for Membrane Technology II”. Membrane processes have gained an important place in the world due to their effectiveness, sustainability, and low environmental impact. Polymer membranes with tailored properties obtained by bulk or surface modification by different approaches or prepared from newly designed polymers are of significant fundamental and industrial interest in various fields. Novel preparation and modification techniques for polymer membranes help to develop emission-free “green” membrane processes that are particularly necessary for modern society. Special emphasis will be placed the following, but other subjects are also of interest:
- Membrane development;
- Membrane characterization;
- Bulk membrane modification;
- Surface membrane modification (plasma, layer-by-layer, thin layers);
- Membrane transport properties;
- Simulation of membrane processes;
- Application of novel membrane 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 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
