Advances and Applications of Carbon Nanotubes
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Remarkable applications of Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) are already uncountable, but their potential is undoubtedly yet to be fully developed. Therefore, we welcome submissions from Applied Sciences, Applied Nano and Nanomaterials that reveal the huge potential of CNT, including, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Development and application of novel tailored CNT-based (nano)materials;
- Development and application of CNT-based building blocks in the design of (mechanical, thermal, optical, magnetic, chemical, and biological) sensors;
- Development and application of CNT and CNT-based (nano)materials in (electro)catalysis;
- Development and application of CNT in analytical chemistry (e.g., pre-concentration and clean-up schemes, etc.);
- Development and application of CNT for environmental sustainability (e.g., water quality control and treatment, adsorption of contaminants, desalinization, etc.);
- Development and application of CNT and CNT-based (nano)materials in materials science;
- Development and application of CNT and CNT-based (nano)materials in drug delivery systems;
- Development and application of CNT and CNT-based (nano)materials in biomedical imaging;
- Advances in CNT and CNT-based (nano)materials synthesis and characterization;
- Advances in CNT non-covalent functionalization and covalent functionalization;
- Advances in tailoring CNT-based nanohybrids and nanocomposites.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
i. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
ii. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
iii. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
iv. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
v. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
