Materials Chemistry of Fullerenes, Graphenes and Carbon Nanotubes

Dear Colleagues,

Nanocarbon compounds, including but not limited to fullerenes, graphenes, and carbon nanotubes, are attracting increasing interest due to their superior physic chemical, mechanical, and biological features. Such materials have been proposed for several applications in different research fields, from chemistry and engineering to electronics, materials science, energy management, and biomedicine.

This Special Issue is intended as a platform for interactive material science articles (either research and review articles) with an emphasis on the functionalization chemistry, preparation, and characterization of nanocarbon compounds, as well as all aspects of physical properties of functionalized, conjugated, or hybrid nanocarbon materials, and their associated applications. The ultimate aim is to collect all the recent advances in the field, highlighting the strengths and the weaknesses of each nanostructure and providing new ideas for researchers working in this multidisciplinary area.

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.
