Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Dielectric capacitors are widely used in microelectronics, biomedical, hybrid vehicles, high-power transducers, high-voltage power transmission systems and military applications due to their fast charge/discharge speeds and good power density. Importantly, dielectric material is one of the key parts of dielectric capacitors. The motivation of this Special Issue (SI) is to investigate the influence of chemical composition, microstructure and heat treatment on the energy storage performance of dielectric composites, and can include big-data analyses and simulations on this kind of dielectric composites, which can significantly improve the energy storage performance of dielectric capacitors. This SI offers some new methods, materials and strategies for the fabrication of composite dielectrics for simultaneously realizing a great breakdown strength, a good discharged energy density and an excellent discharging efficiency. Finally, these works provide some ideal candidates for next-generation high-pulse-energy storage capacitors.

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.
