Summary
Functional polymer composites have drawn increasing attentions in the fields such as renewable energy, automotive, aerospace, construction, biomedical industries, among many others. The Polymer composites, which consist of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers, particles, or additives, offer a diverse array of material structures (films, coatings, and hydrogels), making them suitable for a wide range of applications. Therefore, the research for new formulations, experimental, theoretical, characterization or applications of advanced polymer materials is an extremely hot topic both at a scientific level and regarding industrial application.
In this special issue, we will explore in depth three major themes: the synthesis, characterization and applications of functional polymer composites.
(1) Synthesis: This theme will examine strategies for synthesis of neoteric polymer composites with special structure or attractive properties.
(2) Characterization: This section will explore the advanced analytical techniques, including microscopy, spectroscopy, mechanical testing, and non-destructive evaluation, enable researchers to elucidate the structure–property relationships of composites.
(3) Applications: This theme will focus on the novel applications of polymer composites in emerging technologies, such as renewable energy, automotive, aerospace, soft robots, wearable devices, energy storage materials, artificial skins, and sensors.
