Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Polymers and their composites have recently received significant attention due to their potential applications in energy storage, such as lithium-ion batteries, Na-ion batteries, high-performance supercapacitors, fuel cells, Li metal polymer, lithium–sulfur, solid-state batteries, rechargeable batteries. Polymers constitute cheap, lightweight, and environmentally friendly materials. They are key components for the achievement of functional, enduring, and flexible devices able to reach the commercial stage. The combination of polymers with carbon-based materials, graphene, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), metal oxides, or MXenes can lead to hybrid materials with enhanced performance for energy storage applications.
This Special Issue on “Polymers Energy Storage Materials” covers the synthesis of advanced polymer materials, carbon (grapheme, MOFs and MXenes)-based materials, flexible utilization of polymers in energy storage technologies, nanostructured polymers (or nano-polymers), energy storage devices (lithium-ion batteries, Na-ion batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, Li metal polymer, lithium–sulfur, solid-state batteries), materials in the energy storage area are welcomed. This Special Issue aims to facilitate the advancement of research related to polymers for sustainable energy storage through original research articles.

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. Polymers is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
