Porous polymer films with a regular arrangement of pores (see figure) with a narrow pore size distribution have recently been reported. The preparation of the films from a variety of star polystyrenes, micellar polystyrenes, and block copolymers, the mechanism of formation, and the potential applications of the materials are presented.
