Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, significant advancements have been made in nanometric materials, including solid fuels, metal particles, catalysts, functional materials, energy materials, and carbon materials, due to the technological developments in the field of nano-scale science and technology. The International Micro-Nanotechnology Innovation and Development Forum (IMNIDF) is a fantastic event for global academic researchers, industrial partners and policy makers to come together and share their latest progress and exciting breakthroughs and ideas on the topics of nanotechnology, nanostructured materials, nano- and microscale innovative materials. The conference has a history of nearly ten years, and was first held in Xi’an China in 2019. Since then, the conference has been held every year in different cities in China, such as Zhengzhou (2024), Zhengzhou (2023), Zhengzhou (2022), Zhengzhou (2021), Zhengzhou (2020), and Xi’an (2019). Xi’an has been selected to host the 6th IMNIDF in 2025.
Thanks to the Nanomaterials Editorial Office, a Special Issue, entitled “Nano- and Micro-Scale Innovative Materials and Development: Selected Papers from the 6th International Micro-Nanotechnology Innovation and Development Forum (6-IMNIDF)”, has been set up in support of the 6th IMNIDF, which will cover the full spectrum of topics on this event. This Special Issue will contain the accepted papers presented at 6th IMNIDF in Xi’an, China, including those that cover nano- and microscale textile materials, metallic materials, energy materials, functional materials, catalytic materials, intelligent sensing materials, carbon materials, biomaterials, and interdisciplinary integration technology.
The submission of contributions on the advanced nanomaterials from the viewpoint of experiment and simulation aspects, including research papers, reviews, and short communications are encouraged.

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.
