Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fiber-reinforced polymeric composites (FRPCs), made with short-cut, continuous or woven fibers as reinforcement, are the most crucial category in many composite materials. Through various methods, such as winding, molding or extruding processes, FRPCs have exhibited high specific strength, good designability, excellent fatigue performance, among others. Researchers and engineers in numerous fields, such as aerospace, aircraft, automobile, etc, have been giving significant attention to this area of research. Recently, novel preparation technology, interface modification and numerical simulation not only provide effective designs for high-performance composites but also promote practical applications. Topics that are particularly encouraged for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following research areas:
- Advanced manufacturing technology;
- Interface modification;
- Multi-scale simulation;
- Novel properties and applications;
- Reinforcement theory.

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.
