Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymer-based nanomaterials have emerged as key components in the development of next-generation electrochemical energy devices, including batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells. Their unique properties, such as a high surface area, tuneable conductivity, and mechanical flexibility, make them ideal candidates for improving energy storage and conversion efficiency. This Special Issue will discuss recent advancements in polymer-based nanocomposites, including conductive polymers, polymer electrolytes, and hybrid nanostructures. Key focus areas include enhancing charge transport, stability, and scalability for commercial applications. The integration of nanotechnology into polymer science offers promising pathways in addressing current limitations in energy density, cycle life, and cost, thus paving the way for more sustainable and efficient energy solutions.

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.
