Fabrication and Application of Electrospun Nanofibers

Dear Colleagues,

Currently, electrospinning is the most promising nanotechnology to process most polymers into nanofibers. Additionally, electrospun products are playing an important role in fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic. While many other nanofiber technologies have been developed, electrospinning is still the most accessible approach that researchers in worldwide can apply to design and create so many amazing products, referring to the fields of tissue engineering, public health security, filtration, energy, etc. This Special Issue focuses on publishing original research papers or reviews on manufacturing new functional polymers into nano- or low micro-fibers using electrospinning or its derivative technologies, such as melt electrowriting, electro-centrifugal spinning, near-field electrospinning, and so on. Of course, hybrid manufacturing that contains electrospinning is also acceptable.

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-anonymized 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.
