Special Issue on Modification of Polymer Materials
The modification of
polymers has been practiced since the dawn of mankind with the working of
animal hides and natural fibers. In spite of this ancient beginning significant
advances are occurring almost daily. The "black art" of polymer
modification is increasingly yielding to scientific investigation and as new
insights become available, new applications are found for this information -
the advances in knowledge and applications coupled. The goal of this special
issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the
world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the
area of modification of polymer materials.
In
this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit
original research and review articles that explore modification of polymer materials. In this special issue,
potential topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Surface
Modification of Polymer Materials Induced by Laser Irradiation
-
Filled
polymer composites
-
Nanofillers
in polymers
-
Additives
in polymers
-
Surface
modification of polymers: chemical, physical, and biological routes
-
Smart
