Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Waste is a biggest issue in today’s society and there is a huge need for changing the concept of waste and transforming the waste as resources. This can not be happen without using innovative solutions and advance processes which can transform waste to high quality products.
This Special Issue aims to present the latest research related to using waste materials as input to produce high quality composite materials. Advanced techniques for controlling the properties of these composite materials, innovative solutions for tarsforming waste to resources and great improvement of current practices to incorporate more waste into the process will change the concept of waste and resources.
Our aim is to have collection of papers that talk about:
- How we can use separate and sort waste more efficiently to be able to use them in production
- How we can incoporate more perentage of the waste in production process
- How we can enhance the properties of the produced product despite using waste materials
- How we can control the process and simulate the parameters to have more control over output
- And Characterisation of produce product using simple techniques which is easy to achieve by industry
Please note that these are just some guideline and the topics are not limited to these.
Dr. Farshid Pahlevani

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. Journal of Composites Science is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
