Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recently, we have seen a significant increase in research devoted to energetic materials, as demonstrated by the large amount of published papers, awarded grants and special purpose contracts. Many of these studies have been conducted with an almost sole focus on practical aspects (e.g. performance benchmarks), even though those practical achievements arise from an extensive foundation in the molecular sciences.

Consequently, in this Special Issue, we would like to invite you to present your contributions in the field of energetic materials and in detection methods relevant to them (e.g. for use in analysis of post-blasting fumes).

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.
