Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
we welcome you to submit your study to our Special Issue “Anti Corrosion Science in Polymeric Materials”.
To prevent the entrance of corrosive chemicals, thin layers of polymeric coatings are frequently applied to the surface of metals. In spite of all their advantages, however, polymeric coatings still need to be developed further. They tend to lose some of their functioning over time, such as their barrier properties, and they have a finite lifespan. The cross-linking density; the functional group on the coating surface; and the chemistry of the coating, which affects the degree of adhesion to the metal surface, are a few factors that affect the longevity and toughness of a polymeric coating.
The objective of this Special Issue is to illuminate and explore current developments in the field of polymer-based materials for corrosion protection by combining original full papers, communications, and reviews on this broad issue.

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.
