Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This year, I have been given an exciting opportunity to serve as a Guest Editor of a Special Issue in the Applied Sciences journal. You are kindly invited to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue entitled “Recent advances in the synthesis and applications of nanoparticles”, deadline on 25 Feb 2022.
Nanoparticles are key components in a wide range of advanced applications. This Special Issue is an opportunity to report on all relevant achievements and to provide a useful reference for industry and researchers on cutting edge technologies on nanoparticles. The fascinating richness of properties including size, morphology, and composition of polymeric, metallic, and semiconductor nanoparticles are essential for many important applications.
In particular, this Special Issue focuses on advanced chemical and electrochemical approaches to synthesis-functionalized nanoparticles for advanced applications in catalysis, drug delivery, sensors, energy storage, textile, and disease diagnosis. The Special Issue also demonstrates advanced characterization techniques to explore physical properties, formation mechanisms, and growth kinetics. We expect to receive original works that emphasize on new synthesis approaches and recent applications of nanoparticles, identifying trends, potential future research areas, and potential commercial products. If you are interested in contributing to this Special Issue, we would appreciate receiving a tentative title of your contribution.
Prof. Dr. Ezzeldin Metwalli
Guest Editor
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.
