Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced polymer materials, with their unique properties and versatility, have extremely wide applications in energy material fields such as secondary batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, photovoltaics, phase change energy storage materials, etc., playing a crucial role in promoting the development of the energy industry across multiple dimensions such as improving storage and conversion efficiency, driving technological advancements, and fostering sustainable development. Undoubtedly, with continuous technological advancements and innovations, advanced polymeric materials will play an even more critical role in the energy industry, making greater contributions to the construction of a clean, low-carbon, and efficient energy system.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to the theory, design, synthesis, modelling, and modification of all types of advanced polymer materials applied in the field of energy materials.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
All advanced polymer materials applied in energy storage systems, including polyolefin separators, various polymer-based electrolytes, electrode binders, polymer-based composite current collectors, aluminium laminated films, thermal management materials for battery packs, thermal conductive materials, flame retardant materials, heat dissipation materials, structural adhesives, etc.
