Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Carbon nanomaterials have been widely used in electrochemical energy storage devices (lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors), especially porous carbon nanomaterials, due to their stable structure, wide source of raw materials, and rich variety. The specific surface area, pore size distribution, surface infiltration, microscopic morphology, and doping of atoms and composites with nanomaterials have large effects on the electrochemical properties of porous carbon nanomaterials. Therefore, it is urgent to seek novel high-performance porous carbon and its nanocomposites for electrochemical energy storage devices.
This Special Issue, titled "Porous Carbon Nanomaterials and Their Composites for Energy Storage", aims to explore the latest developments in porous carbon nanomaterials and their composites for electrochemical energy storage devices. Carbon nanomaterials were modified by designing new porous structures and combining various compounds (such as metal oxides, sulfides, carbon materials, carbides, etc.) to achieve high-performance carbon-based electrode materials for energy storage. We welcome researchers to contribute their original research articles, exchanges, and comments to this Special Issue. The topics of interest include but are not limited to novel preparation techniques, carbon nanomaterials with advanced structure, high-performance porous carbon and its composites, and carbon-based electrode materials with special properties (compressible, stretchable, foldable, etc.).

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.
