Supramolecular Synthesis in Chemical Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

The exploitation of supramolecular bonding behind designing a series of supramolecular materials for a wide range of applications promotes the chemical society in developing some exciting fields of chemical technologies. The movement with the host-guest systems was initiated by Donald J. Cram, Jean-Marie Lehn and Charles J. Pedersen, recognized by the Noble prize in Chemistry 1987 "for their development and use of molecules with structure-specific interactions of high selectivity" and now materialized by different fields of scientists for the advancement of civilization. We aim to bring this Special Issue to developing the chemical engineering technologies by exploring supramolecular materials like MOF, supramolecular gels, pharmaceutical co-crystals, supramolecular containers, etc.

Here we invite authors to submit review articles, novel and original works to this Special Issue which could increasingly spread and advance our scientific understanding. This issue will emphasize the following areas mentioned as keywords, but could even be diversified further. 

Before submission authors are requested to read carefully the journal declines for authors. Review papers can only be submitted by editorial invitation. Please note that the papers that match with the scope of this Special Issue will only be considered.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. ChemEngineering 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 1800 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.
