Dear Colleagues,

The aim of the Special Issue on “Biomedical Composites: Material Science and Corrosion Resistance Aspects” is to collect high-quality papers and reviews on the theoretical and experimental study of composite biomedical materials evidencing recent progresses in material science and electrochemical biocorrosion aspects. The use of composite biomaterials is finalized to solve the constraints of single materials by highlighting their functionality in the human body environment. All research groups with different backgrounds working in this area are invited to propose to the Special Issue the development of their research on all types of biomedical composite materials with both theoretical and experimental approaches. 

Potential topics include but are not limited to:

• Synthesis of composites for biomedical applications;
• Composite coatings with improved biocorrosion resistance;
• Physicochemical, electrochemical, mechanical, tribological, biological, structural and functional characterization of biomedical composites;
• Theoretical modeling of the synthesis processes or the functioning of composite biomaterials in the human body.

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. Journal of Composites Science is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
