Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The main objective of this Special Issue is to publish outstanding papers presenting the latest research in the field of new advanced materials and their understanding with specific applications. There are some special application domains in focus, such as: materials for the environment; biomaterials; materials for cultural heritage (preservation/protection and restoration of works of art); and building materials—all of these to be considered with the lowest impact on environment and user.
The title of this Special Issue covers a wide range of topics: from obtaining these materials (nano- to macro-scale), their characterization by any means, and their use in a specific application.
Obtaining, Characterization, and Applications of Advanced Materials:
- Green materials;
- Materials for environment;
- Biomaterials;
- Materials for cultural heritage;
- Building materials.
Involving modern analytical techniques and other tests:
- Surface analysis/cross-section analysis (microscopy, profilometry, reflectography, colorimetry, etc.);
- Chemical analysis (spectrometry—UV–Vis, FTIR, XRD, XRF; GC-MS, HLPC etc.);
- Physical-mechanical tests (tensile, hardness, impact, elongation, torsion, shear, etc.);
- Corrosion tests;
- Biochemical tests (biocompatibility in vivo/in vitro);
- Etc.
