Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
International Women’s Day, 8 March, 2022, and the UN's Sustainable Development Goal of achieving gender equality, recognizing the contribution of women and girls around the world, who are leading the charge on climate change adaptation, mitigation, and response, to build a more sustainable future for all.
It is our pleasure to announce a new Special Issue on “Women in Materials Chemistry”, highlighting the achievements of women scientists in material chemistry from all around the world.
We cordially invite you to submit your work, performed across all areas of materials science and present your latest research in classical and advanced fields, such as organic and inorganic materials, nanomaterials, biomaterials, composite and hybrid systems, green and sustainable synthesis of materials, as well as sensor-advancement, including nanosensors, microchips, and lab-on chip.
This Special Issue is aimed to spot contributions of women researchers in the development of tailored materials to be applied in different application fields, such as biomedical, agricultural, and environmental sciences, food safety, forensic chemistry, industrial chemistry, cultural heritage, and energy. These are only some of the topics of interest, and you are welcome to add new ones and contribute to a high-impact Special Issue
This Special Issue will include communications, high-quality papers, and review articles in Materials Chemistry. Articles celebrating outstanding researchers who are women are also welcome. Papers where the lead authors are women, or that are completely authored by women, are encouraged. However, submissions from all authors, irrespective of gender, are welcome.
Prof. Dr. Maria Manuela Silva
Prof. Dr. Luísa Margarida Martins
Prof. Dr. Antonella Curulli

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
