At present, great progress has been made in the design, preparation, and characterization of composite materials, making them smarter and versatile. By creating new properties using suitable fillers and matrix, functional composites can meet the most challenging standards of users, especially in high-tech industries. Advanced composites reinforced by high-performance carbon fibers and nanofillers are popular in the automotive and aerospace industries thanks to their significant advantages, such as high specific strength to weight ratio and noncorrosion properties. In addition to the improvement of the mechanical performance, composite materials today are designed to provide new functions dealing with antibacterial, self-cleaning, self-healing, super-hard, and solar reflective properties for desired end-use applications. On the other hand, composite materials can contribute to mitigating environmental issues by providing renewable energy technologies in conjunction with multifunctional, lightweight energy storage systems with high performance and noncorrosive properties. They are also used to prepare a new generation of batteries and directly contribute to H2 production or CO2 reduction in fuels and chemicals. This Special Issue aims to collect articles reporting on recent developments dealing with preparative methods, design, properties, structure, and characterization methods as well as promising applications of multifunctional composites. It covers potential applications in various areas, such as anticorrosion, photocatalyst, absorbers, superhydrophobic, self-cleaning, antifouling/antibacterial, renewable energy, energy storage systems, construction, and electronics. The modeling and simulation of processes involving the design and preparation of functional and multifunctional composites as well as experimental studies involving these composites are all covered in this Special Issue. 606 $aHistory of engineering & technology$2bicssc 610 $aCuO/ZnO 610 $aphotodegradation 610 $ananocomposite 610 $amethylene blue 610 $asunlight 610 $aphotocatalyst 610 $adye degradation 610 $aco-precipitation 610 $afree vibration analysis 610 $adoubly-curved shell and panel 610 $anano-composites 610 $afunctionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) 610 $afour-variable refined shell theory 610 $a3D printing 610 $aFDM method 610 $abronze polylactic acid composite 610 $aresponse surface method 610 $aacrylic polyurethane coating 610 $anano-SiO2 610 $amechanical properties 610 $aweathering resistance 610 $apoly (lactic acid) 610 $apulp fiber 610 $anatural fiber reinforced composites 610 $aepoxidized Tung oil 610 $acarbon/carbon composites 610 $amulti-phase coatings 610 $aoxidation resistance 610 $athermal cycling 610 $a3D printed coating 610 $amulti-material additive manufacturing 610 $aenvironmental exposure 610 $aABS 610 $aASA 610 $acomposites 610 $achitosan-pectin 610 $aadsorption 610 $apolyelectrolyte complex 610 $acovalent biopolymer framework 610 $astrawberry 610 $aedible coating 610 $acut fruits 610 $apost-harvest 610 $astorage 610 $aquality 610 $amilk composition 610 $amultiphase polydisperse system 610 $anear-infrared spectroscopy 610 $amid-infrared spectroscopy 610 $aRaman spectroscopy 610 $amilk optical and acoustical properties 610 $amilk spectral analysis 610 $aspeed of sound 610 $aattenuation 610 $aultrasonic techniques 610 $aannealing time 610 $acrystallize process 610 $amolecular dynamics 610 $aNiAu alloy 610 $astructure 615 7$aHistory of engineering & technology 700 $aNguyen-Tri$b Phuong$4edt$01302197 702 $aNguyen-Tri$b Phuong$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557117303321 996 $aMultifunctional Composites$93026238 997 $aUNINA
