Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced materials are used for production of consumer goods, cleaning products, cosmetics, chemotherapeutics, and variety of other materials. Thus, they are essential for many sectors such as public health, industry, mobility, constructions, high living standards, and many others. Noteworthy, design and production of advanced materials have also become one of the biggest challenges of the sustainable development of humanity today. Innovative materials, including nanomaterials, should be designed with a purpose to have novel and enhanced properties over conventional materials in products and processes. To guide the design of novel advanced materials, a fundamental understanding of their structure–property relationship is necessary. Based on this understanding, we are able to develop methodologies for the fine control of the material structures, and manufacturing process of their synthesis with enhanced efficiency and stability. Undoubtedly, our common future depends largely on novel advanced materials obtained according to the rules of sustainable chemistry. Thus, to meet the growing demand for novel advanced materials in many aspects of our life, a sustainable engineering should be applied to make them more attractive and competitive in terms of properties and applications. This special issue highlights the advances in synthesis, characterization and applications of various novel nanostructured materials, ranging from 0D to 3D materials, in different potential 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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
