Special Issue Information
This Special Issue focuses on the development and application of active polymeric materials in electrochemical systems, emphasizing their critical role in energy conversion and storage. Polymeric materials have garnered significant attention due to their flexibility, chemical stability, and potential for sensor and biosensor applications. Their electrochemical properties make them ideal candidates for use in lithium-ion batteries, serving as polymer anode materials that enhance battery performance, longevity, and safety. This issue aims to showcase cutting-edge research in the field, particularly the integration of polymers in energy storage systems, highlighting advancements in electrochemistry for battery applications. By addressing challenges in energy efficiency, electrochemistry, and sensor technology, this collection will contribute to the development of sustainable, high-performance materials with applications in diverse fields such as energy storage, battery technologies, and biomedical sensing.
Dear Colleagues,
We are organizing a Special Issue that may be of interest to you. As one of the Guest Editors, I cordially invite you to submit a manuscript for consideration and possible publication in a Special Issue on “Active Polymeric materials for Electrochemical applications“ in the open access journal Polymers.
Polymers is a peer-reviewed, open access journal containing research pertaining to all aspects of polymers, micro-/nano-scaled structures, materials, devices, systems, and related micro-/nanotechnology, from fundamental research to its applications. This journal is dedicated to providing free access to the latest research in related fields and hastening the dissemination of new research results and ideas, allowing research groups to generate new studies, innovations, and knowledge without delay.

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.
