Special Issue on

Porous Materials, Pore Structure and Its Applications

Porous materials are ubiquitous in many energy-related applications in recent years. There are various forms of porous media, such as carbonate rock, percolation cluster, packed particles, metal foams, etc., which are either widely distributed in the natural environment or carefully designed for industrial functions. This special issue will be focused on studying different kinds of porous materials, pore structure and their applications.

In this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles that explore porous materials, pore structure and its applications. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Nanoporous materials
• Macroporous materials
• Mesoporous materials
• Microporous materials
• Synthesis of porous materials
• Characterization and processing of porous materials
• Porous medium
• Metallic foams and porous metals
• Pore structure models
• Application of porous materials

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Porous Materials, Pore Structure and Its Applications” should be selected during your submission.
