Overview

Aims and Scope

Plasma Processes & Polymers focuses on the interdisciplinary field of low temperature plasma science, covering both experimental and theoretical aspects of fundamental and applied research in materials science, physics, chemistry and engineering in the area of plasma sources and plasma-based treatments.

Plasma Processes and Polymers publishes an attractive mixture of strictly peer-reviewed Reviews, Feature Articles, Full Papers and Communications. The journal also presents Experts Opinions, Book Reviews, Conference Reports, and Essays.

ISSN: Previously 1612-8850 (print). 1612-8869 (online).

Currently 12 issues per year.
