Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the great technological challenges is the development of new smart and multifunctional materials, closely related to the evolution of concepts such as Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things (IoT). Numerous attempts have been made to develop polymer-based composites with outstanding electronic and magnetic properties. Thus, several aspects, which affect the effectiveness of these polymer-based composites, are mainly related to the possible combinations of functional fillers, integration into devices, and compatibility with several additive manufacturing techniques. Accordingly, there is a need to develop new composite materials that provide these capabilities and can enhance the physical properties and applications, as well as consider the potential impacts on production scale-up.

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.
