Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Detailed investigation of the thermal behavior of divergent materials creates a possibility to improve their properties and achieve more effective ones. In the family of modern materials, polymers hold a prominent position. In recent years, they have become the backbone of contemporary industry. A variety of the implementation of polymeric materials creates a need for a thorough examination of their properties. A significant amount of diverse applications requires certain thermal behavior. Polymers are often expected to withstand extremely high or extremely low temperatures. A proper characterization of these advanced materials assumes their precise applicability in the rapidly developing area of the polymeric sector. Additionally, thermal behavior is of paramount importance in the process of recycling polymeric materials
The present Special Issue aims to discuss all aspects regarding multiple thermal characterizations of diverse materials. It provides a platform for scientists from various areas to present their research
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue. Reviews, mini-reviews, original articles, and short communications covering the most recent advances are welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
