Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite your contributions highlighting the recent developments or innovations in the field of oxide-based catalytic materials.
This Special Issue aims to showcase the recent developments or innovations in the field of oxide-based catalytic materials. Oxides, known for their unique electronic and structural properties, have emerged as clue components in catalytic materials, with a focus on environmental and energy applications.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: Oxides as clue components in catalytic materials, focused on environmental and energy applications; cutting-edge research on novel synthesis methods, characterization techniques, and the integration of oxide materials in photocatalytic and traditional catalytic systems; the design of heterostructures; the role of defects and doping in enhancing catalytic performance; and the exploration of novel oxide compositions.
By bridging theoretical insights with practical applications, this Issue seeks to advance the understanding of oxide-based materials and their transformative potential in sustainable catalysis, paving the way for future innovations in this area of heterogenous photocatalysis and materials science.
Dr. Dora Alicia Solís-Casados

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
