Abstract Membrane materials, as one of the special projects of the “13th Five-Year Plan” for new materials, play very important roles in industry and daily life. According to the different raw materials, membrane materials are separated as organic membranes, inorganic membranes and new membrane materials. Here we summarized the progress of varies membrane materials and their applications in water treatment, gas separation, battery separators and fuel cells, etc. in recent years. The applications, as epidemic protection materials, are also introduced. Besides, the future development trends are discussed.
