Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

I recently accepted an invitation from Catalysts (Impact Factor: 3.444) to establish a Special Issue entitled ‘Catalysis for Two-Dimensional (2D) Materials’. This Special Issue covers all catalysts that are composed of layered silicate materials, boron nitride, graphene-based materials, layered clays, and layered metal oxides such as layered titanates in the field of catalysis and photocatalysis. It is my pleasure to invite you to submit an invited article on this topic. The article may be either a full paper or a communication based on your own research in this area, and after collecting 10 papers in this area, it will be published as a book. Although the deadline for the submission of manuscripts to the Special Issue is 15 April 2020, I would appreciate hearing from you in the next few weeks about whether you would be willing to submit a contribution.

Dr. Esmail Doustkhah
Guest Editor

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. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.

Abstract
Thiourea-bridged organosiloxane is used to synthesize a periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO). Since this PMO has an S-enriched surface, owing to thiourea functional groups, it exhibits strong coordination toward Pt ions, and it shows a high tunability in the Pt nanoparticles size. This hybrid [...] Read more.
Thiourea-bridged organosiloxane is used to synthesize a periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO). Since this PMO has an S-enriched surface, owing to thiourea functional groups, it exhibits strong coordination toward Pt ions, and it shows a high tunability in the Pt nanoparticles size. This hybrid mesoporous material is employed as a catalyst in the efficient reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol at room temperature in an aqueous media. Full article
