Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to welcome you to our Special Issue of Inorganics, titled “Nanocomposites for Photocatalysis, 2nd Edition”. As you all know, photocatalysis has become one of the key areas within the catalysis field. There are many materials with photocatalytic applications, such as semiconductors (mixed oxides or nanocomposites), semiconductor-based heterojunctions (micro/nano composite structures, binary or ternary hybrid structures, etc.), and many other nanocomposite materials and waste-derived or templated photocatalytic materials. Therefore, contributions highlighting such mechanistic details are highly welcome. Moreover, a photocatalyst often requires the presence of one or even several so-called co-catalysts to enable desired chemical conversions. Given the success of the first edition of this Special Issue, a second volume was launched, seeking to gather research articles on the roles of nanocomposites in photocatalytic processes to this Special Issue.
Other areas for which high-level contributions are needed—but are by no means limited to—include plasmonic photocatalysis, nanocomposite materials, photocatalytic synthesis, solar fuels, theoretical modeling of photocatalytic processes, photoreactor and reaction engineering, non-linear optical effects, decontamination and disinfection, and pilot and full-scale applications.

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. Inorganics 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 2700 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.
