Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, people have developed higher expectations of materials with respect to high strength and low weight, and traditional metal materials (e.g., copper, iron, steel, and aluminum) are far from meeting these requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to urgently develop a new composite material with high strength that is lightweight and antiseptic. Superfiber-reinforced plastics/polymers (FRP) are either comparable to or better than many traditional metallic materials (e.g., steel and aluminum alloys), due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, stiffness-to-weight ratio, fracture toughness, and corrosion resistance.
Therefore, the Special Issue aims to study the application characteristics of superfiber materials, such as carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP), aramid fiber-reinforced polymer (AFRP), knitted fiber-reinforced polymer (KFRP), hybrid superfiber materials, and other superfiber materials. Thus, we sincerely invite colleagues at home and abroad to submit your contributions to this Special Issue.
A wide variety of this Special Issue are covered, including but not limited to the following:
- Functional superfiber materials;
- Hybrid superfiber applications;
- Nanotube superfiber materials;
- Additives-based superfiber materials;
- Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP);
- Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP);
- Aramid fiber-reinforced polymer (AFRP);
- Knitted fiber-reinforced polymer (KFRP);
- Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites;
- Other functional superfiber materials.

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.
