Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Global warming, increasingly worsening environmental pollution and the compulsion for energy security have stimulated the urge to develop energy storage devices that can store energy obtained from renewable sources, like solar, wind turbines and hydropower, and supply the same whenever required. In this regard, design and development of sustainable, eco-friendly and high-performance energy storage devices coupled with renewable energy sources is indispensable. In parallel, materials that are supposed to possess high energy densities as well as high power densities are of great concern, so that a hybrid device consisting of supercapacitors (SCs) (with high power densities) and Li-ion batteries (LIBs) (with high energy densities) could fulfill the above mentioned target up to some extent. This Special Issue aims to, but is not limited to, exploring the synthesis of transition metal oxide nanomaterials, MOFs, MWCNTs, MXenes, and composite materials to enhance the performance of energy storage devices. We welcome interested scholars to submit their articles to this Special Issue.

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-anonymized 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.
