Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research on graphene has substantially evolved over the past 18 years. Since its isolation in 2004, graphene has attracted research attention in the condensed matter physics and materials science fields due to its extraordinary physicochemical properties. There are numerous applications wherein graphene and its derivatives continue to be investigated, such as semiconductor electronics, batteries, water desalination, mechanical composites, coatings, etc. In this Special Issue, we invite researchers from across the world to submit their original scientific findings that help to advance our fundamental understanding of graphene and its derivatives for the engineering of surfaces and interfaces, as well as thick and thin films, so as to harness these fascinating materials in future technologies. We also welcome perspective and comprehensive review articles with a focus on contemporary work and future directions in this field.
In particular, the topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Novel techniques for scalable synthesis of graphene and graphene derivatives (e.g., graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide, graphene nanoribbons);
- Overcoming materials science challenges toward the integration of graphene in film and/or coating commercial technologies;
- Fundamental investigations into the structure-property relationships of graphene and its derivatives are guided by experiments and/or simulations.

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. Coatings 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 2600 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.
