Nanomaterials for Catalysis and Energy Storage: Design, Synthesis, and Molecular Applications

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will highlight recent advances in nanomaterials for applications in all topics of heterogeneous catalysis (electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, biocatalysis, etc.) and energy storage (batteries and supercapacitors). It proposes to demonstrate how scientific findings may effectively contribute to an ecofriendly science and technology. This issue pursues contributions including basic and applied research, analytical studies, and simulation. We welcome researchers to submit original research, review, mini review, and perspective articles on themes including, but not limited to:

• Synthesis of novel nanostructured noble-metal-based catalysts;
• Synthesis of novel nanostructured non-noble catalysts;
• Advanced shape-, size- and composition-controlled nanomaterials;
• Computation-assisted nanocatalyst development;
• Advanced characterizations of nanomaterials;
• Nanomaterials for electrocatalysis;
• Nanomaterials for photocatalysis;
• Nanomaterials for biocatalysis;
• Nanomaterials for biomass conversion;
• Nanomaterials to tackle pollution (air, water, surfaces);
• Nanomaterials for CO₂ reduction;
• Nanomaterials for petrochemistry;
• Nanomaterials for supercapacitors;
• Nanomaterials for batteries.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
