Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Graphene is one of the most attracted materials in the 21st century. This wonderful material has dominated in almost every field with greater positive results at most of the preliminary investigations. It is important to create more opportunities for research publication on graphene. Thus, we would like to invite you to submit your work to this Special Issue on "Graphene Films". This volume will cover any research related to graphene including synthesis, characterization, application, modeling and simulations.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Mechanical exfoliated graphene;
- Chemically exfoliated graphene;
- Optical properties and device application of graphene;
- Chemically reduced graphene oxides (RGO);
- Graphene oxides (GO);
- Scalability of graphene and graphene oxide manufacturing processes
- Mechanical properties and device application of grapheme;
- Graphene-based polymer composites;
- In situ reactions of polymer and grapheme;
- Graphene in Biomedical applications including tissue engineering and biocomposites;
- Environmental effect of grapheme.

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
