    [This article belongs to Special Issue Smart and Eco-Friendly Polymer Composites: Trends and Technologies under section jopc in Journal of Polymer and Composites(jopc)]

    Special Issue Description

    This special issue focuses on the growing global need for eco-friendly, high-performance polymer composites that serve modern engineering applications. Emphasis will be placed on the development of smart, sustainable, and multifunctional composites derived from natural fibers, green polymers, recycled materials, and nanostructured reinforcements. Researchers are increasingly exploring bio-based polymers, hybrid fillers, AI-guided material design, and functional composites that not only meet performance demands but also align with environmental goals. This issue aims to capture cutting-edge trends and emerging technologies that will shape the next generation of polymer composites.
