We are currently recruiting Editorial Board Members for the new Section "Polymer Membranes and Films" (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/polymers/sections/Membr_Film), to be published in the journal Polymers (ISSN: 2073-4360). If you are interested in serving on the Editorial Board or have potential candidates to recommend, please reach out to us. 

Applicants for the Editorial Board positions may nominate a specific section in which they feel their expertise lies, or they may nominate themselves as an Editorial Board Members for the entire journal. 

Polymers is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal containing research in the field of (i) polymerization methods, (ii) theory, simulation, and modeling, (iii) understanding of new physical phenomena, (iv) advances in characterization techniques, and (v) harnessing of self-assembly and biological strategies for producing complex multifunctional structures. Polymers is fully covered by various leading indexing services, including PubMed/MEDLINE, Science Citation Index Expanded (Web of Science), Scopus/SciVerse, and Google Scholar. Full-text articles are also available in PubMed Central. The newly released impact factor of Polymers is 4.329. 

The Section “Polymer Membranes and Films” of Polymers aims to rapidly publish contributions on all aspects of describing the synthesis, characterization, or application of membranes or films, but we are also interested in new polymers for membrane or film applications and new ways of manufacturing membranes. We encourage the submission of manuscripts that provide novel, competently researched articles and reviews that report on significant advances in the field. 

As an Editorial Board Member, you will have the following responsibilities:

• Attending our Board Meetings to advise on journal development strategy;
• Supervising Special Issues related to your research field;
• Pre-screening and making decisions on new submissions in your research interests (about one per month or less);
• Inviting and contributing high-quality papers;
• Promoting Polymers at conferences that you attend or organize (we could supply any promotional materials you need or help with sponsoring issues). 

If you are an active researcher in the field and are passionate about publishing cutting-edge research, please do not hesitate to contact the Section Managing Editor Mr. Felix Li ([email protected]). 

We look forward to hearing from you soon.
