Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in the anode materials for lithium/sodium-ion batteries. This issue will cover all the major aspects of battery research ranging from materials design to cell fabrication, challenges to solutions, and scientific understanding to practical applications.
This Special Issue will focus on the following topics:
- Carbon, metal oxide, and transitional metal dichalcogenides based anodes
- Tailoring advanced high-entropy oxide anodes
- Hierarchical structures for anodes
- Pre-lithiation/sodiation strategy
- Examining the charge/discharge mechanism by Synchrotron techniques
- Advanced electrolytes and electrolyte additives
- Examining the stable electrolyte interphase chemistry for anodes
- Novel binders
We are looking forward to receiving interesting manuscripts addressing the limitation of current anodes, the development of novel electrode/electrolyte designs, and breakthroughs in the anode research. We welcome contributions from researchers and experts working in the field of lithium/sodium-ion batteries.

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. Molecules 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 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.
