Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the development of electric vehicles and portable electronics, it becomes more and more important to develop high-performance batteries and supercapacitors with long cycling lives, high-rate performance, high energy density and power density, and low costs. Nanomaterials have unique merits when it comes to enhancing the electrochemical performance of batteries and supercapacitors. We are pleased to invite you to contribute an article (either a research paper or review) to this Special Issue of Nanomaterials.
This Special Issue focuses on all aspects of energy storage and conversion, in particular nanomaterials in lithium-ion batteries, in lithium metal batteries, sodium–ion batteries, potassium ion batteries, Zn-based batteries, Pb-acid batteries, lithium/sodium–sulfur batteries, supercapacitors, and/or novel types of batteries.
In this Special Issue, original research papers, reviews and short communications are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Preparation of novel nanomaterials such as anodes, cathodes, electrolytes, separators, current collectors, and additives for high-performance batteries and supercapacitors;
- New application of nanomaterials in high-performance batteries and supercapacitors;
- Engineering, control, and optimization aspects of nanomaterials in batteries and supercapacitors;
- Applications and future trends of nanomaterials for high-performance batteries and supercapacitors;
- Testing and evaluation of nanomaterials in high-performance batteries and supercapacitors.

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.
