Characterization and Application of Nanoporous Materials II

Dear Colleagues,

Materials were, are, and will be the main player in several research topics, and they affect the evolution of many scientific areas, such as industrial processes, energy generation, environmental protection, health science, etc. The pore structure of materials is a parameter of major interest which controls many properties and rules their behavior in many processes—for example, mass transport through porous media, oil recovery from porous sediments, diffusion process, extraction process, heterogeneous catalysis, membrane separation process, fuel cells capacity, energy saving, controlled release of medicines in human body, and new medicines. This Special Issue aims to cover current experimental and theoretical studies in the field of nanoporous materials, their characterization, and application in applied sciences. Advanced synthesis routes, production technologies, characterization techniques, the scale-up of synthesis processes, fundamental understanding of nanopore structure, studies on mass transport through nanoporous media, and the relationship between the kind of precursor material and the final pore structure are very welcome.

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-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
