Electrochemical Synthesis of Nanostructured Metals and Alloys: Properties and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the electrochemical synthesis of nanostructured metals and alloys, emphasizing their unique properties and diverse applications. Electrochemical techniques have emerged as powerful and versatile methods for nanomaterial synthesis, offering key advantages such as low cost, scalability, precise control over composition and morphology, and high material purity.

We aim to showcase recent advances in the electrochemical fabrication of nanostructured materials, including electrodeposition, electrochemical etching, template-assisted synthesis, anodization, and the electrosynthesis of conductive polymers, and explore their applications in fields such as biomedicine, sensors, energy storage and conversion, catalysis, and more.

We particularly welcome original research and review articles that investigate the following:

• Novel electrochemical strategies for synthesizing metallic, alloyed or composites nanostructures
• Structure–property relationships of electrochemically produced nanomaterials
• Functional applications in biomedical devices, electrochemical sensors, catalysis, and energy systems among others
• Integration of green or sustainable electrochemical methods in nanomaterial synthesis

We invite contributions that advance the understanding of how electrochemical processes can be optimized and applied to design next-generation functional nanomaterials.

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.
