Polymers and Their Conductive Composites

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is focused on current state-of-the-art research on electroactive-based materials and their synthesis, as well as their physicochemical properties and applications. Special attention is given to pristine conducting polymers (CPs) and their conductive composites with other organic and inorganic components. When other components are incorporated into CPs, the materials form composites; in this particular case, they form conductive composites. These conductive composite materials have attracted considerable attention because of their unique physical and chemical properties, which are different at the macroscopic and microscopic scales. The design and synthesis of conductive composites result in the inheritance of the advantages of each component and offer new features because of the synergistic effects between the components. These materials are frequently applied in energy storage devices, thermoelectric devices, photovoltaic cells, electro- and photocatalysis, biomedicine as sensors and biosensors, etc.

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.
