Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mesoporous materials are a kind of porous materials with pore size between 2 and 50 nm. Due to the high specific surface area and abundant pore channels for mass transfer, mesoporous materials have attracted the long-term interest and attention of scholars in the field of materials and chemistry. In particular, the mesoporous nanostructured materials are excellent supports for loading and dispersing noble metal nanoparticles, sub-nano clusters, and even single atoms to catalyze many chemical processes, such as water–gas shift reaction, selective hydrogenation, steam reformation for H2 evolution, CO oxidation reaction, and so on. Therefore, it is highly desirable to develop mesoporous nanostructured materials for heterogeneous catalysis.
The aim of the current Research Topic is to cover promising, recent, and novel research trends in the mesoporous nanostructured materials for heterogeneous catalysis. Areas to be covered in this Research Topic may include, but are not limited to,
(1) new methodologies for preparing highly efficient mesoporous nanostructured materials;
(2) novel mesoporous-materials-supported metal nanoparticles for heterogeneous catalysis;
(3) novel mesoporous-materials-supported sub-nano clusters for heterogeneous catalysis;
(4) novel mesoporous-materials-supported atomically dispersed species for heterogeneous catalysis;
(5) novel unsupported mesoporous nanostructured materials for heterogeneous catalysis; and
(6) reviews on mesoporous nanostructured materials for heterogeneous catalysis

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.
