Advances in Polymeric Electrospinning
This special issue belongs to the section “Polymer Applications“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrospinning is a versatile technology to fabricate nanoscale architecture comprising polymeric fibers which boasts very high surface area to volume ratio, tortuous pathways, and a highly porous network. Such nanoarchitectures are extremely useful for environmental pollution mitigation involving air and water or provide alternate energy conversion routes to avoid fossil fuel dependency to curb environmental impacts. In recent years, electrospun nanofibers have opened up a plethora of options in their applications toward the environmental sectors. The demands of high-performance materials in a clean environment, personal protection from air/waterborne diseases, and cleaner energy production with minimal impact on nature have increased the attention to biofriendly approaches for such nanoarchitecture manufacturing. Electrospinning is indeed a fascinating process to invest our efforts in these directions.

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. 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.
