We have published several works in Polymers within the last 2 years, and each time we have had a great publishing experience because Polymers is highly ranked, has a great reputation, and, most importantly, has a good reviewing process and a fast response during the submission process. Therefore, I'm satisfied that the review process didn't make submissions difficult with over-criticism, but the feedback from the peer review process was good. Another success of Polymers is that its Special Issues on specific topics that are highly relevant. These Special Issues are highly reader-focused and of course increase the citation rates and benefit researchers. I would definitely recommend Polymers to all my colleagues as they publish their future research.
