high-quality papers presented at ISPST 2026 may be recommended for consideration in a Special Issue of Progress in Color, Colorants and Coatings (PCCC). Recommended manuscripts will undergo the journal’s standard editorial assessment and peer-review process, and final publication decisions will be made independently by the journal’s Editorial Board.
In line with the scientific objectives of the 17th International Seminar on Polymer Science and Technology (ISPST 2026), outstanding research contributions related to color science, colorants, coatings, polymers, and associated technologies may be selected for recommendation to a Special Issue of Progress in Color, Colorants and Coatings (PCCC).
Following the scientific evaluation conducted by the Scientific Committee of ISPST 2026, selected papers will be recommended to the journal for further consideration. The recommendation of a manuscript does not constitute acceptance for publication.
All recommended manuscripts will be subject to the journal’s standard editorial screening and peer-review procedures. Final decisions concerning acceptance and publication will be made independently by the Editorial Board of Progress in Color, Colorants and Coatings.
This initiative provides an additional opportunity for researchers participating in ISPST 2026 to disseminate high-quality scientific findings and strengthens collaboration between the conference and specialized scientific publications in the fields of color, colorants, coatings, and polymer technology.
Further information regarding eligibility criteria, manuscript preparation, submission procedures, and important dates will be announced through the official ISPST 2026 website.
