Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, recycling plastics has become a crucial environmental and waste management concern. The goal is to reuse them to produce new items through 3D printing. Three-dimensional printing is especially significant due to its low energy consumption, high efficiency, and easy customization as an advanced production technology. Additive manufacturing has a wide range of applications, including biomedical, arts, automotive, and aerospace industries. Each field requires materials with specific requirements for the fabrication of prototypes and functional parts. This Special Issue focuses on recent advances in new materials for additive manufacturing and new composites with characteristic properties for applications in additive manufacturing. Understanding these properties is essential for identifying the potential applications of these materials.

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.
