The injection molding of polymers and polymer composites is a versatile way to fabricate multifunctional components or structural parts for applications in the fields of automotives, biomedicine, electronics, packaging, aerospace, etc. Processing methods of interest include conventional injection molding, foam injection molding, reaction injection molding, ultrasonic-assisted injection molding, and microinjection molding, as developed to suit the needs of the above-mentioned sectors. The properties of the molded parts are primarily determined by the development of crystalline structures, the distribution and orientation of functional fillers, which can be affected by the types of fillers and host matrices, part geometries, and processing conditions. This Special Issue provides a forum for the discussion of the injection molding of polymers and polymer composites, with a focus on state-of-the-art progress, developments, and new trends. Perspectives, review articles, full papers, short communications, and technical papers on this topic are welcome.

Different plastic products and materials call for specific finishes for the best possible results.
