Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanosized materials have become increasingly popular for catalytic applications due to their unique physical and chemical properties. These materials have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, which makes them more efficient in catalyzing chemical processes and appealing in a wide range of catalytic applications such as hydrogenation, oxidation, carbon capture and storage, water treatment, and energy conversion.
Within this context, the design and development of nanosized materials for catalytic applications is a rapidly growing field that involves the creation of highly active and selective catalysts with improved performance over conventional catalysts.
This Special Issue welcomes contributions regarding the design and development of nanosized materials for catalytic applications involving the selection of the appropriate nanomaterial, synthesis using various techniques, characterization, and evaluation of catalytic activity.
You are kindly invited to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue. Full papers, communications and reviews are all welcome.
Dr. Lingshuai Kong

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
