Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy storage materials belong to innovative class of materials that underlies the transition to a global low-carbon economy. Given that the materials are designed to cover certain energy applications, their desired properties determine the possibilities, potential, reliability, and limitations of the technology. That is why materials with desired properties are more than simple components of the energy technologies. The development of innovative materials for a given application is closely related to our ability to obtain insights into complex relations between the method of synthesis and material’s properties.
This Special Issue addresses the relationships between methods of synthesis and materials’ properties. The main topics are related with the application of materials:
- electrochemical energy storage;
- thermal energy storage and conversion;
- fuel cells and hydrogen;
- carbon capture and storage.
Thank you very much!
Prof. Dr. Radostina Stoyanova

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.
