Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced composite materials are fundamentally changing modern engineering and technology thanks to their unique properties, including lightweight durability, high strength-to-weight ratios, and multifunctionality. This Special Issue, focused on polymer composite materials and their latest developments in various fields, highlights new methods and ideas for their preparation, performance characterization, successful application, and potential in aerospace, automotive, biomedical devices, sustainable construction, electronics, and energy storage.
We hope that, through this Special Issue, scholars can engage in wide-ranging, beneficial exchanges of knowledge. We look forward to your contributions.
