Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on advanced polymeric materials for electrical insulation and high-voltage applications. It aims to present the latest research and developments in polymeric materials that exhibit exceptional electrical insulation properties, thermal stability and mechanical strength, making them suitable for use in high-voltage equipment, insulators, power cables and other electrical insulation systems. This Special Issue covers various aspects of polymeric materials, including their synthesis, processing, characterization and application in electrical insulation. It explores the challenges and opportunities in developing new polymeric materials for high-voltage applications, with a focus on improving the performance, reliability and safety of electrical insulation systems. This Special Issue also highlights the potential of these advanced polymeric materials to revolutionize the electrical insulation industry by providing innovative solutions to existing problems and enabling the development of more efficient and sustainable high-voltage technologies.

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.
