Cover Feature: Application of Advanced Microscopy Techniques to the Characterization of Mixed Matrix Membranes (Chem. Eur. J. 69/2024)
The Cover Feature depicts various aspects of electron microscopy methods and membrane separation. Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) show great potential for separation processes because of their tunability and enhanced performance. The Review by D. Poloneeva and J. Gascon (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202403201) describes the methods, challenges, and applications of focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for MMM characterization. A range of examples where electron microscopy was used for the accurate investigation of filler dispersion are provided.
