Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanocatalysts are of special interest due to their homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic properties that make them a superior and versatile class of catalysts with very broad applications fields, from biomass transformations to fuel cells. They possess the advantages of homogeneous catalytic systems concerning selectivity and productivity, as well as those from the heterogeneous catalytic systems in terms of product separation, catalyst recovery, and reutilization. Due to a growing interest within the scientific field of nanocatalysis during last few years, this Special Issue is devoted to the design and preparation of innovative nanocatalysts and their applications in different areas of interest. We kindly invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue in the form of a full paper, communication, or review.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
