Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Additive manufacturing is a new technology with the basic feature of material accumulation and the goal of directly manufacturing of the required components . It provides a feasible scheme for the rapid manufacturing of the components with complex structure and special shape. Fiber reinforced polymer composites are the most widely used important materials in the world. Among them, polymer matrix is very suitable for rapid processing and forming of complex components by additive manufacturing technology, because of its many superiorities such as wide varieties, various curing methods, low viscoelastic conversion temperature and so on. This Special Issue aims to collect the latest and meaningful research results on the additive manufacturing technology of fiber reinforced polymer composites, and provide a valuable reference for the application of this new technology in the research field of fiber reinforced polymer composites.

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.
