Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymer-based nanoparticles are particles that range in size from about 1 to 1000 nanometers in diameter, about one thousand times smaller than the average cell in a human body. Polymer-based nanoparticles comprised of polymers and inorganic particles offer a tremendous spectrum of properties and (potential) applications due to the versatility of combinations of characteristics of polymers and inorganic materials. Polymer-based nanoparticles can be formed in a variety of ways due to different applications, such as nanopolymers, nanomembranes, nanoelectrospun, and nano-3D printing. Considerable research has been undertaken with a view to deepening our basic understanding of nanocomposites in all areas, and, on the other hand, novel (potential) applications are also envisaged in scientific studies. This Special Issue will deal with the main features of and recent advances, as well as upcoming trends, in Polymer-Based Nanoparticles: Fabrication and Medical Applications.

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.
