Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reinforced materials for additive manufacturing is a field of research that is currently being studied. Reinforced polymeric materials offer new possibilities for the engineering field in terms of mechanical properties and industrial applications. Thus, advances in the development of solutions with reinforced polymeric materials are a topic of interest that can provide new perspectives.
In accordance with the above and to disseminate the advances in this field, this Special Issue is dedicated to the latest research on these topics, covering all aspects related to product design with reinforced polymers and, in turn, advances in additive manufacturing and other processes that may be of interest.
With the focus on reinforced polymer product design, potential topics include, among others, the following:
- Product design;
- Reinforced Polymeric materials;
- Additive manufacturing;
- Design for additive manufacturing;
- Processes for product design;
- Manufacturing of new products with reinforced materials;
- Methodologies for the implementation of new reinforced polymer processing technologies in society;
- New concepts;
- Sustainability;
- Customization;
- Finished quality;
- Life cycle assessment (LCA).

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.
