Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the increasingly polluted environment and the gradual depletion of fossil fuel reserves, the development of renewable technologies for environmental remediation and energy production is highly desirable. Over recent decades, the catalytic application of oxide-based nanoparticles has attracted wide attention. By precisely manipulating the size, shape, and composition of oxide-based nanoparticles, scientists can tailor their properties for enhanced catalytic activity. These engineered materials find applications in various industries, offering new possibilities for efficient and sustainable processes.
This Special Issue will present comprehensive research outlining progress on the fabrication and application of oxide-based nanoparticles. We are pleased to invite you to contribute original and review articles regarding nanoparticles for catalytic applications. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, heterogeneous catalysis;
- Catalytic water splitting,
- Catalytic environmental remediation;
- Controlled synthesis of oxide-based nanoparticles.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Wei Zhou

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.
