Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
To celebrate the 15th anniversary of Nanomaterials, we are delighted to launch the Special Issue entitled “The 15th Anniversary of Nanomaterials—Women in Nanomaterials”. This issue is intended to celebrate and highlight the significant scientific achievements of female researchers who are leading scientists in the fields of nanomaterials and nanotechnology.
The Special Issue will feature high-quality research articles and communications, as well as comprehensive review articles and perspectives, that encompass the following subjects:
- Two-dimensional nanomaterials in energy applications, including, but not limited to, the development of 2D nanomaterials such as 2D transition metal sulfides/oxides, 2D metal/organic frameworks, hexagonal boron nitride, Mxene, and so on, for advanced energy conversion and storage systems (e.g., lithium/sodium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, and solar cells).
- Nanomaterials for adsorption, gas storage, catalysis, and photocatalysis, including, but not limited to, the synthesis, characterization, modeling, and applications of nanomaterials for gas adsorption and storage, catalysis, and photocatalysis for energy and environmental applications.
- Nanomaterials for biomedical applications including, but not limited to, synthesis, characterization, stem cell interaction, mechanotransduction, regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, and antibacterial properties.
- Biobased nanomaterials, including, but not limited to, lignin nanoparticles, cellulose nanocrystal, and liposomes synthesis, characterization, and green applications.
Although we welcome submissions from all authors, regardless of gender, we encourage submissions with women as lead authors (first author or corresponding author).

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.

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.
