Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanostructured electrocatalysts have emerged as a promising class of materials for high-performance electroanalysis due to their unique properties, such as high surface area, enhanced catalytic activity, and improved stability. This Special Issue aims to showcase the latest advancements in the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of nanostructured electrocatalysts for electroanalytical systems. The scope of this issue encompasses various nanomaterials, including noble metals, metal oxides, sulfides, nitrides, and carbon-based nanomaterials, as well as their composites and hybrid structures. The focus will be on the rational design of nanostructures with tailored compositions, morphologies, and interfaces to optimize their electrocatalytic properties for specific electroanalytical applications. The Special Issue will cover the fundamental understanding of the structure–property relationships, catalytic mechanisms, and kinetics of nanostructured electrocatalysts, as well as their integration into advanced electroanalytical platforms. The potential applications of these nanostructured electrocatalysts in areas such as environmental monitoring, biomedical diagnostics, food safety, and energy conversion will also be highlighted. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of the art and future directions in nanostructured electrocatalysts for high-performance electroanalysis.

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.
