Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue entitled “Fabrication of Carbon and related materials/ Metal Hybrids and Composites” focuses on novel developments and new processing methodologies in the fabrication and modification of carbon and its structure-related materials and surface functionalization to improve its surface activities and catalytic applications and to increase its adhesion to metals and its consolidation and sinterability for different applications. We invite high-quality submissions addressing current challenges in the preparation of carbon/metal-based materials, including, but not limited to, the topics as listed below.
- Hybrid carbon/metallic materials;
- Graphene and graphene oxide hybrid materials;
- Functionalization and surface treatment of carbon materials;
- Carbon/metal hybrid materials for the removal of waste dyes;
- Carbon materials for catalytic applications;
- Carbon materials for energy storage applications;
- Carbon materials for water treatment applications;
- Carbon/metal hybrid materials for the removal of waste dyes;
- Carbon fibers/metal matrix composites;
- Carbon nanotube/metal matrix composites;
- Graphite/metal matrix composites;
- Diamond and related materials/metal matrix composites;
- Biologically active nanomaterials.

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. Crystals is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2100 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.
