Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hybrid polymeric materials combine the desirable characteristics of more than one class of materials and represent a wide range of applications with a rapidly growing research area englobing different applications such stimuli-responsive properties, energy conservation, organic electronics, catalysis, advanced composites and nanocomposites, among others. In this Special Issue, we welcome research papers and reviews focusing on hybrid polymer-based materials with advanced properties, in terms of synthesis/fabrication methods, characterization techniques, smart and responsive materials and recent applicative developments, including environmental sustainability and end-of-life issues. The aim is to present the state-of-the-art of advanced polymeric materials, highlighting the newest developments in structures and properties.

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.
