Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electroactive polymers make up a fascinating class of materials that exhibit electrochemical activity in a soft matter platform. As the most promising electroactive materials, electroactive polymers have attracted great interest owing to their chemical and electrochemical stability, high conductivity, and biocompatibility, and because they are mechanically robust for processing and device fabrication. Recent advances and developments in electroactive polymers show that new platforms and technologies can be used to design and fabricate innovative conducting polymer architectures with extensive application in various areas. For examples, electroactive chips for energy devices, sport/medical fabrics for remote sensing and monitoring, soft robotics, etc., are some key demonstration applications currently available. The materials themselves may include conjugated polymers, organic radical polymers, ion-conducting polymers, metal-containing polymers, or hybrid inorganic/organic motifs.

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.
