Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the development trend of high-performance polymer coatings has seen significant growth.
This Special Issue of Polymers focuses on the weather resistance, antibacterial properties, physical damage resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, decorative properties, and other properties of polymer coatings, which can be used to extend the lifespan of matrix materials.
The modification coating of synthetic polymers or their combination with other biomaterials to obtain new functional polymer coatings can be widely applied in various industries, providing development prospects for the intelligent application of high-performance polymer coatings.
This Special Issue aims to collect the latest research on polymeric coatings and welcomes comprehensive review papers on the progress of polymeric coatings from leading experts.
