Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Spinning is a fundamental process to impart strength and make continuous yarns by twisting short or staple fibers, which are then woven or knitted into fabrics for apparel, home textile, and industry applications. The most used spinning methods are ring-/rotor-/air-jet-/electro-spinning processes.
Among all the spinning technologies, ring spinning has always been the dominant yarn technology since its invention in the 19th century because of the high quality of its resultant yarn and wide range in terms of the applicability of raw materials and yarn count it can manufacture. At present, rotor spinning has become a popular technology characterized from the very beginning by its incomparably higher production potential than ring spinning. It has a high delivery speed, low production costs, and a low end-breakage rate. From an economic point of view, open-end spinning does not require roving or winding machines. Therefore, rotor-spun yarns have always been successful, as they can be produced at lower cost than ring-spun yarns and are suitable for the range of applications in question. One of the great advantages of the AJV is that it can deliver yarn at up to 400 m/min with polyester or viscose fibers. Electrospinning process is one of the most effective methods to spin nanoscale yarns. All of these modern spinning methods play a critically important role in the textile industry.
This Special Issue on "Modern Spinning Process Technology" will focus on the new insights on modern spinning processes and new technology, including ring-/rotor-/air-jet-/electro-spinning processes, textile biotechnology, image processing, simulation and other preclinical approaches. While covering a broad range of fundamental, experimental, and industrial topics, we warmly invite academics and scientists to contribute with original research papers, short communications, and review articles.

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.
