Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High-Performance Resins have seen considerable growth in recent years due to the growing demand for lightweight materials in the automobile, aerospace and microelectronic industries, for example. High-Performance Resins can be used as structural materials and polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells because they possess a combination of interesting properties, such as excellent mechanical strength per unit weight, high thermal stability and good insulating properties. In addition, their high thermal stability also qualifies them as excellent candidates for matrices in composites. Although general engineering plastics can meet the basic needs of modern industry, more crucial requirements, such as higher thermal resistance and excellent processability, should be put forward with the expansion of applications under harsh conditions.
This Special Issue invites original papers and reviews reporting on recent progress in the recent development of High-Performance Resins, with a particular focus on advances in the synthesis, characterization and application of High-Performance Resins in the high-tech industry. This issue welcomes focused review articles that examine the field, identify emerging trends, and suggest future directions for developing High-Performance Resins.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
