Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
At present, excessive microwave radiation has become a typical pollution that is a great threat to human health. In order to solve the problem of the serious electromagnetic pollution caused by the widespread application of electromagnetic equipment and microwave technology, there is an urgent need to develop wave-absorbing and electromagnetic-shielding materials with good electromagnetic properties.
In recent years, carbon nanotubes have been used to prepare components with various micro-nanostructures due to their unique advantages. As one of the effective dielectric components in electromagnetic composite materials, when combined with other organic polymer components through a multicomponent synergistic mechanism, the impedance matching characteristics of the system can be optimized in many aspects, and good protection effects can be achieved against electromagnetic radiation.
In this Special Issue, we will focus on the latest developments in the research on the use of carbon nanotube-reinforced polymer composite materials to eliminate electromagnetic radiation pollution, including the following aspects：
- A new method for preparing CNT-based composite wave-absorbing materials;
- A new method for preparing CNT-based composite electromagnetic-shielding materials;
- Optimization of electromagnetic properties of carbon-based composite materials;
- Polymer matrix composites that are used to eliminate radiation pollution;
- Novel mechanism of action of carbon-based electromagnetic 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. Polymers 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.
