Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Various biomedical materials, including, polymers, inorganic nanomaterials, metal materials, etc., have been designed and applied in medical fields, such as drug delivery, tissue engineering, medical device, immune therapy, etc. Novel preparation methods, modification strategies and characterization measures are critical factors to meet the growing requirements of biomedical materials, and promote the emerging development of biomaterials. Furthermore, it is also important to introduce the medical applications of biomedical materials. Therefore, we are attempting to organize a Special Issue: Biomedical Materials: Preparation, Modification, Characterization and Medical Application.
In this Special Issue, research into the biomedical polymers (especially biodegradable polymers), functional inorganic nanomaterials, biocompatible metal materials are welcomed. The general topics are listed as follows, but potential submissions are not limited to these areas:
- Preparation, characterization and application of biomedical polymers;
- Surface modification of biomaterials and medical devices;
- Biomaterials used in bone tissue engineering/dental materials;
- Novel inorganic antibacterial materials;
- Smart drug-delivery system;
- Nanomaterials for immune modulation and therapy.

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.
