Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Innovation in the field of thermosetting polymers derived from epoxy resins is a topic of wide interest due to their multiple applications, ranging from a simple coating to high-tech applications such as composites and biomedical materials for the aerospace and biomedical industries. This has resulted in a significant amount of high level papers derived from those investigations. For this reason, a Special Issue of the journal Polymers related to the latest innovations in the field of epoxy polymers is being launched. This volume is planned to receive high quality articles related to the synthesis of novel biobased epoxy monomers and their curing, the development of high performance composite materials as well as special applications such as 3D printing and biomedical materials. We will be delighted to receive your manuscripts for this Special Issue.

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.
