Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As multifunctional and advanced materials, polymer nanocomposites are currently a thriving area of scientific research. These synthetic polymer nanocomposites are vital components of modern society and the global economy. Various functional polymer nanomaterials have been prepared, and their preparation methods are constantly being improved. Due to their enhanced mechanical, optical, electrical, and thermal properties, polymer nanocomposites have important applications in many fields, including catalysis, pollutant degradation, coatings, medical materials, electronic functional materials, etc.
This Special Issue seeks original research articles on the synthesis, properties, applications, and understanding of polymer nanocomposites. Research topics will include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Novel synthesis of polymer nanocomposites;
- Distinctive properties of polymer nanocomposites;
- Applications of polymer nanocomposites;
- Developments and design of polymer nanocomposites;
- Unique morphology of polymer nanocomposites.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Polymers 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.
