Editor-in-Chief Message from the Editor-in-Chief

Prof. Dr. Alexander Böker Since its foundation in 2009, Polymers has developed into Lehrstuhl für Polymermaterialien an internationally renowned, extremely successful open und Polymertechnologie, access journal. The editorial team and the editorial board University of Potsdam, 14476 Potsdam-Golm, Germany dedicatedly combine open-access publishing and high- quality rigorous peer reviewing. The performance of the journal has proven this strategy to be well-suited and highly successful. This is reflected in the increasing impact factor of Polymers, the most recent one being 3.426.

I would like to invite you to contribute to the success of the journal by sending us your high quality research papers. We would be pleased to welcome you as one of our authors.
