Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are helical cylinders of graphitic carbon that possess a quasi-one-dimensional structure having diameters down to a few nanometers. Over the past three decades, CNTs and their composites have been a focus of nanomaterial research due to their outstanding physicochemical properties and wide range of potential applications. This special issue of Materials on“Controllable Preparation and Application Exploration of Carbon Nanotubes and Composites” will focus on the most recent innovations in controlled synthesis and their applications in, but not limited to, electronic devices, energy storage and conversion, optoelectronics, thermoelectrics, structurally reinforced composites, sensors, adsorption, and catalysis. Review articles and research papers are highly desired to be submitted before the deadline.

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.
