Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This is a Special Issue entitled “Synthesis and Application of Nanocatalytic Materials”. Coordinating the increased energy demand and the rising environmental crisis is an extremely important issue in contemporary society. The development of state-of-the-art nanocatalytic materials is crucial to achieving efficient and clean energy systems as well as a sustainable environment. In this Special Issue of Materials, recent advancements and developments in the synthesis of nanocatalytic materials for catalysis applications will be discussed, including, but not limited to, electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, thermocatalysis, and fuel cells.
A deeper understanding of the relationship between composition, structure, synthesis, and catalytic mechanisms will provide the possibility of modifying and optimizing catalytic activity, selectivity, as well as stability. Such properties can be realized through the rational design of catalysts, assisted with in situ/operando characterization techniques. Research articles, review articles, as well as short communications are warmly invited. We aim to develop green synthesis routes for nanocatalytic materials, gain a better understanding of the catalytic mechanisms, facilitate catalytic performance, and promote industrial development.

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.
