Call for Papers

Dear Researchers,

I hope this email finds you well. I am excited to inform you that I will be serving as a Guest Editor for a new Special Collection titled: "Special Collection on Sustainable Solid-State Technologies for Joining Similar and Dissimilar Polymers." This collection is set to be published by Sage Publishing in their esteemed journal "Advances in Mechanical Engineering," which is a JCR-ranked (impact factor 1.8 and CiteScore 3.4), peer-reviewed, Open Access journal. You can find more information about our collection and the journal in links below:

The motivation behind launching this Special Collection stems from the growing importance of enhancing product design flexibility through the efficient and practical utilization of various materials, particularly in engineering constructions. As polymer materials gain traction in structural applications, it becomes imperative to explore sustainable solid-state technologies for joining similar and dissimilar polymers. Through this collection, we aim to shed light on innovative techniques such as:

laser welding,

friction stir welding,

ultrasonic welding,

mechanical fasteners,

and adhesive bonding, among others

I am particularly keen to encourage papers focused on polymeric materials, sustainable practices, and advancements in joining technologies. Your expertise in these fileds leads me to believe that your latest research could significantly contribute to this collection.

I would like to extend an invitation to you to consider publishing your latest research in this Special Collection. If you are interested, please contact me with your suggested title, and I will be delighted to pass on your details to Sage so they may work with you toward publication.

As per Open Access publication requirements, please note that there will be a publication fee associated with this opportunity. However, the benefit lies in the increased visibility of your paper, as it will not only appear in the regular issue but also in the Special Collection, attracting a broader readership. Ongoing promotions for the Special Collection will ensure that your paper receives continuous views, downloads, and citations.

Should you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

I look forward to the possibility of collaborating with you and thank you for considering this invitation.

Sincerely,
