A Foreword from the Editor-in-Chief

Accompanying the development of petrochemical industry, great progress has been achieved in the organic polymer materials. It is well known that the conventional polymer materials usually consist of organosilicon polymers, polycarbonates, polyethylene, polyamide, polyurethane, polysulfone, phenolic resin and so on. Although their synthesis and applications have been well developed, the further research on them still has great significance. Moreover, natural polymers such as polysaccharides, tannins, cellulose also occupy an important position in the family of the organic polymer materials.
