Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced nanomaterials and nanostructures are important species today. Their development was caused by, for example, the construction of scanning electron microscopes in the previous century. This allowed for the separation of many different paths in this scientific field. Sometimes, collecting actual studies on that broad field of research is great.
This Special Issue is a great opportunity to do that. It is a chance to collect papers focused on nanomaterials and nanostructures, which are interesting for scientists. The papers can study titania or carbon-based nanomaterials, composites modified with, e.g., nanoparticles introducing interesting new properties, nanoparticles, quantum dots, catalysts, photocatalysts, adsorbents, and many other fascinating chemical systems.
Besides the interesting compounds mentioned, methods of their synthesis, their activity, and thermodynamic or kinetic stability are good topics for the proposed Special Issue.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
