Developments in Epoxy Polymers and Composites

Dear Colleagues,

Epoxy polymers and composites have gained great popularity due to their good mechanical properties, chemical resistance, thermal stability, high adhesiveness, electrical insulating properties, and ease of processing, and are widely used in various industrial applications. High-performance characteristics of epoxy composites are achieved by the incorporation of natural and synthetic fibers and organic and inorganic fillers, including nanosized fillers. The nature of fillers, their concentration, and processing methods have a greater influence on the properties of epoxy composites.

This Special Issue, entitled “Developments in Epoxy Polymers and Composites”, focuses on recent developments in the methods of preparation, modification, characterization, and applications of epoxy polymers and epoxy-based composites. We invite the research community to contribute to this Special Issue by submitting comprehensive reviews or original research papers.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
