Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymer composites are extensively utilized in electrical insulation. However, the escalation of voltage levels and the broadening of application domains have imposed elevated standards on the dielectric, thermal, mechanical, and other properties of polymer composites to satisfy the heightened requirements for reliability, longevity, efficiency, and sustainability of high-voltage electrical equipment, power electronics, and related devices. This Special Issue of Polymers, titled "Polymeric Composites for Electrical Insulation Applications", seeks to discover, address, and distribute cutting-edge research to enhance the design, performance optimization, and practical application of polymer composite materials. This Special Issue invites academics to submit original research articles, reviews, and industrial case studies that emphasize the advancements of polymer composites in electrical insulation applications.

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.
