Chemical Modification of Textiles and Fibrous Polymers
This special issue belongs to the section “Materials Chemistry“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The importance of textiles and fibrous polymers with enhanced positive attributes or designed new properties in daily and professional life is unimaginable. Their properties can be changed through chemical modifications, either conventional wet finishing or unconventional, such as plasma, nanotechnology, microencapsulation, sol-gel, etc.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect and disseminate the latest studies, different methods, and recent developments in chemical modifications of textiles and fibrous polymers. Researchers working in the field are invited to contribute original research papers or reviews to this Special Issue of Molecules.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
