Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Different mixtures are used in the preparation of sensors and electrodes. Polymers are generally used in these mixtures to increase stability and mechanical robustness. Used as one of the components of sensors, polymers play an important role in sensing applications. Polymers for sensor technologies can be manufactured simply and are relatively low-cost. Especially in electroanalytical methods, poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)-based sensors are highly popular. PVC membrane sensors are common tools routinely used for the determination of different species in various samples. Until today, PVC has been included in the composition of many metal-selective sensors. In addition, paraffin and polystyrene were also used in sensor compositions. This Special Issue focuses on “Polymer-Based Coatings for Sensors”. The specific topics of interest for this Special Issue include but are not restricted to:
- Polymer-based electrodes
- Polymer-based sensors
- PVC membrane sensors
- Natural polymer-based Sensors
- Polymer-based Biosensors
- Synthetic polymer-based Sensors
- Polymer-membrane ion selective electrodes

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. Coatings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2600 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.
