Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This special edition, entitled "Advances in Wood Processing Technology: 2nd Edition", focuses on high-quality original research articles and reviews on the latest (innovative) approaches in the development of wood-based materials processing, new ecological wood-based composites, advanced wood processing functions and further advances in industrial production research in the field of wood-based materials and their applications. Wood is an attractive construction material and has several favorable properties and advantages. However, it also has shortcomings and various limitations such as limited fire resistance, dimensional instability and susceptibility to various biotic and abiotic damage. Today, it is possible to improve some properties of wood with the help of extensive innovative methods. Technical progress is largely conditioned by the process of discovering and improving technological processes and methods. New ideas do not usually arise by chance, but social conditions are necessary for this (achieving a certain state of knowledge and technology that requires a new quality, accumulation of knowledge about a given problem). Contributions related to the latest processing technologies for both grown wood and wood-based wood composites will be greatly appreciated.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
