Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Today, polycrystalline, monocrystalline and amorphous magnetic materials have almost completely exhausted themselves and no longer satisfy the needs of developers. Composite magnetic materials can be a good alternative. Of the great variety of magnetic composites, those with the fastest pace are currently magnetic polymer composites (MPCs). MPCs are used as magnetic media for spintronics and memory devices, as photochromic magnetic materials, radio-absorbing materials, magnetostrictive materials, magnetoplastics and magnetoelasts, dampers, and others.
In this Special Issue titled "Magnetic Polymer Composites. Obtaining, Properties and Application", the methods of obtaining magnetic polymer composites, the modification of their properties and structure by the influence of electric and magnetic fields, and the modeling of these polymer materials are considered.
Special attention is paid to the structure of MPCs, as well as their properties, depending on the type of matrix and magnetic filler. The greatest attention is paid to MPCs with fillers in the form of elementary magnets (Fe, Ni, Co) and their alloys (FeNi, NiCo, FeCo, FeNiCo), as well as oxide magnets—in particular ferrites—and magnets in the form of amorphous magnetic materials. This Special Issue considers the mechanical, electrophysical, and magnetic properties of MPCs, as well as the piezoresistivity, agnitoresistivity, magnetic spin interactions, photoconductivity, magnetostriction and other properties. MPCs with fillers in the form of magnetic nanoparticles, as well as MPCs with additives of ferroelectric fillers are also considered.
Issues of the practical application of MPCs are considered. Particular attention is paid to the use of MPCs as magnetic media for recording information and for spintronics, radio-absorbing materials, photochromic materials and materials for magnetostrictive transducers.

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. Polymers 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 2700 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.
