Polymers and Polymer Composites


eISSN: 14782391 | ISSN: 09673911 | Current volume: 31 | Current issue: 1 Frequency: Yearly

Since its inception in 1993, Polymers & Polymer Composites has provided an ongoing forum for the publication of expertly peer reviewed, international research into the following topics:

- Fibre reinforced and particulate filled plastics
- Engineering plastics, (whether reinforced or not)
- Nanocomposites
- Polymers or polyblends intended for engineering use (including structural, load bearing electronic and electrical applications)
- Structural adhesives
- Textile & wood fibres
- Biomaterials with a load bearing capacity, (including polymer based dental materials)

The open access journal is rigorous in accepting papers solely on the basis of novelty and a thorough interpretation of results. Furthermore, in such a fast-moving field, prompt publication is essential, thus we aim to offer improved and rapid access to new research, developed at the leading edge of industry and academia.
