Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to welcome you to our Special Issue, “Advanced Materials for Application in Catalysis”. As you all know, catalysis is extensively used in innumerable chemical reactions. Catalysis can provide attractive solutions to energy exhaustion and environmental problems. Basically, noble metal-based nano-sized materials have been extensively used due to their highly controllable morphology as well as their tunable and remarkable electrical properties. However, limited sources and the high costs of noble metals have shifted the research trends to cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and renewable catalytic materials.
This Special Issue is devoted to the design and characterization of advanced catalytic materials for different types of applications. Novel composites and new synthesis routes or depositions methods as well as characterization techniques and applications will be assessed and collected under the scope of the current Special Issue. The main aim is to accumulate the current state of information, the direction of ongoing expansion work, and avenues for further research.
Research articles (full papers), reviews, and communications are welcome. Potential topics include but are not limited to:
Carbon-based materials, metal oxides, composite materials, semiconductors, hybrid materials, zeolites, and nanomaterials:
- Advanced synthesis approaches;
- Synthesis and characterization;
- Nanomaterials/smart materials;
- Organic transformations;
- Energy and environmental applications.

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 2200 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
