Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to analyse and publicise the current state of knowledge in the field of polymer coatings and related materials. Polymers can be chemically modified to fulfill certain properties or functionalities, such as durability (for outdoor applications), protection, or even filtration as a result of their adsorption/permeability capabilities. New coating or film materials based on such polymeric entities may lead to a further understanding of the processing–structure-property–functionality relationship. Original research or review articles on polymer coatings are welcome.
