Host-Guest Polymer Complexes

I enthusiastically invite you to contribute to a Special Issue of the open-access journal Polymers, focusing on “Host–Guest Polymer Complexes”, which I and two of my former PhD students, Drs. Alper Gurarslan and Ganesh Narayanan, are editing. We hope to include papers describing the syntheses, characterization, and use of host–guest polymer complexes, as well as factors that are important to their formation. Submissions that describe unusual and unique applications of host–guest polymer complexes using hosts other than traditional ones: cyclodextrins, cucurbiturils, urea, thiourea, cyclotriphosphazines, etc., are particularly encouraged.

I hope that you accept our invitation to make this Special Issue one that will introduce, effectively summarize, and increase interest in this important area of polymer science.
