Nanomaterials for Everyday Life

Dear Colleagues,

Nanomaterials are all around us; they are in the air we breathe, in the food we eat, in liquids we drink, in cosmetics, in medicine we take, and in many devices we use in our everyday life. Nanomaterials provide the link between the molecular world and bulk materials and possess specific size-dependent properties. Large effort has been made in recent decades to synthesize new nanomaterials and to study their properties for applications to improve our standard of life, including consumable products or monitoring and cleaning our environment. Chemistry is a key tool in designing materials at the nanoscale either by assembling molecules and atoms or by slicing down bulk materials. Due to the wide range of structural diversity and chemical and physical properties, nanomaterials and their composites are of pronounced interest in many research areas, extending our knowledge in chemistry and providing results that find applications in everyday life.

This Special Issue aims to collect original research articles, communications, and reviews on the topics covering synthesis, structural elucidation, and application of nanomaterials, with special attention to their occurrence in our close environment and consumed industrial products. There is no restriction on the length of the papers.

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. 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.
