The Back Cover shows a high‐performance mixed‐matrix membrane (MMM) with simultaneously large improvements in the CO 2 permeability by 880 % to 687.7 Barrer and in CO 2 /N 2 selectivity by 14.4 % to 34.9. These MMMs are based on an amphiphilic graft copolymer‐directed interface and interaction tuning approach, which maximizes the gas permeation properties of ZIF‐8 nanoparticles. This strategy is also applicable to various metal–organic frameworks and other porous materials, implying a versatile approach for the design of MMMs for efficient gas separation. More details can be found in the Full Paper by Chi et al. on page 650 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201402677 ).
