Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue explores innovations in etching techniques, bonding processes, and nanotechnology applications, offering insights into the latest advancements with a focus on integrating advanced polymers and biodegradable Mg materials. These materials significantly enhance microfluidic devices and miniaturized mechanical components, particularly in biomedical applications, due to their biocompatibility and degradability. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform to share knowledge, network, and build relationships among scholars, presenting and discussing topics such as (but not limited to):
- Advanced Polymer Materials in Biomedical Microfluidics;
- Innovations in Etching Techniques;
- Bonding Processes and Techniques in Microfluidic Devices;
- Nanotechnology Applications in Biomedical Devices;
- Integration of Advanced Polymer Materials in MEMS;
- Synergy between Polymer Materials and MEMS Technology;
- The Relationship between the Structure, Properties, and Performance of Microscale Devices;
- Biodegradable Mg materials and Devices.

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. Micromachines 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 2100 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.
