Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, nano-scale technology has been explored and developed for applications in different domestic and industrial areas. Such nano-scale technology could be used for making nanofibers, developing coatings for specific purposes, and applying surface modifications. This Special Issue welcomes papers in all areas related to nanofibers, coatings, and surfaces. High quality theoretical and practical papers are encouraged for submision to this Special Issue.
This scope of this Special Issue will serve as a platform for papers in, but is not limited to, the following areas:
(1) Theoretical approaches to assembling and developing nanofibers, coatings, and surfaces
(2) Practical and evidence-based approaches for developing nanofibers, coatings, and surfaces for different applications, such as in medicine, healthcare, transportation, etc.
(3) Modelling of nanofibers, coatings, and surfaces for different applications
(4) Physical and chemical methods to evaluate nanofibers, coatings, and surfaces
We welcome articles such as, but not limited to, reviews, full papers, short notes, or communications for submission to this Special Issue.
