Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Manufacturing of nanostructures as cathode, anode, electrolyte, and separator has long been the cornerstone approach for boosting the capabilities of batteries and capacitors for energy storage. This Special Issue, entitled Nanostructures for Energy Storage, highlights the-state-of-the-art nanomanufacturing technologies related to the field of energy storage. Perspective reviews, research articles, short communications, and letters to editors are the key components of this Special Issue.
This Special Issue is organized by Nanomanufacturing but will be appearing as a comprehensive tutorial book. Perspective Reviews survey the current status of researches on manufacturing of nanostructures as cathode, anode, electrolyte, and separator of batteries and/or supercapacitors. Research articles and short communications highlight solutions to difficulties encountered in manufacturing of the nanostructured cathode, anode, electrolyte, and separator of batteries and/or supercapacitors. Letters to editors summarize further challenges in nanomanufacturing of high-performance batteries and supercapacitors for storage of renewables.
Heat management is another important issue encountered in energy storage via batteries and supercapacitors. See how close we can reach the theoretical value of energy, i.e., ∆G = ∆H − T∆S, via nanomanufacturing technologies.
We hope that this Special Issue draws a specific overview of the importance of nanomanufacturing technologies on boosting the performance of batteries and supercapacitors for energy storage.

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. Nanomanufacturing is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
