Synthesis, Characterization and Application of Bioresoursed Porous Polymers and Carboneceous Materials

Dear Colleagues,

Porous materials constitute a large family of materials with a diverse origin, chemical structure, or mechanical strength, the common feature of which is a highly developed porous structure. Despite the years of research on these materials, they are still an inexhaustible source of ideas, new synthesis, or application solutions. Research on porous materials is crucial and constantly developing scientific discipline, the results of which have been successfully transferred to everyday life. They accompany us at every step, filling water filters, serving as washing sponges, filling mattresses, etc.

Manufactured materials from a variety of synthetic substrates, often hazardous, require special care. With this Special Issue, we would like to turn to bioresoursed substrates, which have a similar chemical potential to synthetic substrates and are much safer and eco-friendlier.

The current Special Issue titled: “Synthesis, Characterization and Application of Bioresoursed Porous Polymers and Carbonaceous Materials” aims to attract manuscripts that present state-of-the-art studies on the new synthesis routes, intriguing properties, and suitability to new and unexpected applications of the novel polymer and carbonaceous materials.

The Special Issue welcomes all kinds of reports: communications, full papers, and reviews, from all researchers working on the design, synthesis, and application of novel bioresoursed porous 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. Materials 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 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.
