State-of-the-Art of Nanocomposite Materials in Spain

Dear colleagues,

The synergy between recent achievements in nanotechnology and material science is bringing to light amazing scientific innovations that only a few years ago might have been considered completely unfeasible. The development of novel techniques to design, synthetize, and characterize tailored hybrid nanocomposites today is playing a crucial role in many practical applications, guided by a deeper understanding of chemistry and physics within this distance scale. The horizon of possibilities ranges from biomedical and biotechnology applications to nanoelectronics, energy production and conversion, optics, etc.

Since the emergence of nanotechnology as a scientific domain, Spain has developed a wide network of research institutions and companies that has produced truly relevant scientific and technological contributions in this field. The objective of this Special Issue, entitled “State-of-the-Art of Nanocomposite Materials in Spain”, is to provide an updated general perspective of the research that is currently being carried out. Contributions are welcome in any of the related nanocomposite materials applications, including collaborations of Spanish research groups with international collaborators.

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.
