Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on polymer composites, focusing on the development, characterization, and performance evaluation of materials incorporating various fillers and reinforcements. Studies investigate the effects of fillers such as carbon nanotubes, graphene nanoplates, industrial waste, and agricultural waste on mechanical, thermal, electrical, and electromagnetic shielding properties. Research also explores manufacturing processes, interfacial adhesion, and the application of these composites in automotive, structural, and electronic components.
