Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanofiller-reinforced composites have become a research hotspot in the field of materials science in recent years. By dispersing nanofillers (such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, nano-silicon dioxide, etc.) into the matrix, the mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of the composites can be significantly enhanced. Compared to traditional composites, nanofillers achieve breakthrough optimization of performance at very low addition levels due to their extremely high specific surface areas and unique interface effects. Such materials show broad application prospects in fields such as aerospace, electronic devices, new energy, and buildings.
This Special Issue of Nanomaterials will explore several key themes on nanofiller-reinforced composites, including, but not limited to, their preparation techniques (such as 3D printing and in situ synthesis), functional applications (electromagnetic shielding, low dielectric materials, photocatalysis), mechanical optimization (strengthening and toughening mechanism, heterogeneous structure design), and thermal management (super insulation, high-temperature stability). The objective is to promote technological innovation in preparation, explore multi-functional application scenarios, and facilitate theoretical and performance optimization research. Researchers are encouraged to contribute original research articles or review articles on the preparation, application, theoretical modeling, and simulation methods of nanofiller-reinforced composites.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2400 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.
