Micro/Nano Emulsions: Fabrication and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to describe the techniques essential to producing microemulsions and nanoemulsions, taking into account novel formulations and novel preparation methods.

Articles submitted for publication in this Special Issue should be focused on microemulsion and nanoemulsion applications, such as drug delivery, encapsulation, and the synthesis of nanoparticles/nanostructured materials. We also welcome articles on preparation methods, innovative formulations, and the characterization of emulsions.

Articles could describe different formulations, such as formulations stabilized with surfactants, polymers, proteins, or other food-based particles, being of special interest those that allow for the droplet size and the droplet size distribution to be controlled or those with a low energy requirement.

Moreover, we welcome articles that describe any novel emulsion formulation regarding the final application or the use of novel grade stabilizers.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
