Catalysts (ISSN: 2073-4344) has launched the Section “Nanostructured Catalysts”, which is dedicated to publishing original and high-quality research communications, articles, and review articles on topics covering the design, synthesis, modeling, and catalytic application of nanomaterials. The Section covers the broad fields of catalysis by nanoparticles (including colloidal, supported, alloy, and core–shell structures), nanocomposites (where intimate contact is engineered between two or more unique phases at the nanoscale), and nanoporous materials (including zeolites and MOFs), and by single atoms or sites (including single-atom alloys and immobilized homogeneous catalysts).

As they are published in an open access format, you have free and unlimited access to the full text of all articles published in our journal. We invite you to read our top cited papers published in 2021 and 2022 listed below:
