Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce a Special Issue, titled “Textile Materials: Structure–Property Relationships”, of Textiles, an open access MDPI journal. The development of textiles is the result of long manufacturing and wet-processing stages. The manufacturing stages involve fiber, yarn, fabric, and garment manufacturing, while the wet processes are dyeing, printing, and finishing. Each of these manufacturing or wet-processing stages has numerous factors which manipulate the structures of textiles that eventually impact the properties and performances of the resulting textile materials. Based on the applications of textile materials, the science and engineering of different structures to vary properties are employed in the polymer processing of fibers. Additionally, how and why different textile structures (fiber, yarn, fabric, and apparel) are assembled to shape the final materials along with special finishes determine the properties of textiles. Therefore, the scope of this Special Issue is very wide, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Structure–property relationships in fiber development.
- Structure–property relationships in yarn development.
- Structure–property relationships in fabric (woven, nonwoven, knitted, and braided fabrics) development.
- Structure–property relationships in apparel development.
- Structure–property relationships in special and technical textile development.
- Structure–property relationships in textile-based composite development.

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. Textiles is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
