Experimental, modeling, and/or theoretical papers focused on charged or ion-containing polymer membranes/membrane materials for water purification (e.g., membrane separations) and/or energy generation/storage applications (e.g., salinity gradient energy, battery, and/or fuel cell membranes) are desired. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, water and/or ion transport characterization and modeling, water-polymer interactions, ion-polymer interactions, the influence of polymer structure and morphology on transport properties, and the effects of polymer processing and/or membrane formation conditions on material and membrane properties.
