Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is well known that nanotechnology is a rapidly developing, yet relatively young, discipline. Nanomaterials exhibit unique and extraordinary properties, warranting their development for potential widespread applications. Among these, one may conceptually distinguish the performance of catalytic reactions caused by a relatively high amount of unsaturated chemical bonds on the surfaces of nanomaterials from others. This opens a new perspective in catalysis, which is important in term of solving many real-life problems such as environmental pollution and the synthesis of chemicals of industrial importance. Nanocatalytsts and nanocatalytic processes may be investigated both experimentally and computationally, and studies merging both approaches are of special value.
This Special Issue welcomes novel reports and reviews concerning both experimental and computational investigations in the field of nanocatalysis.

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.
