Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The sustainable biomaterial is a link between biomaterials and renewable natural resources that are giving us a fair chance to establish cutting-edge sustainable development strategies in the coming years. In medical applications, biomaterials are utilized to maintain, enhance, or replace damaged tissue or a biological function. They may be synthetic or natural. Today, biomaterials are crucial to medicine because they help patients recuperate from disease or injury by restoring function. Through the green technology concept, many biomaterials can be produced to reduce carbon emissions and help to maintain a green environment and a reduction in raw waste. The best outcome of sustainable biomaterials is that they can be recycled, reused and biodegraded in nature. In this Special Issue, we are inviting researcher/academics to submit original full papers, communications, and comprehensive reviews describing the latest progress in green synthesis and eco-friendly and environmentally sustainable biomaterials for application in biomedical and regenerative medicine.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
