Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue presents cutting-edge advancements in carbon technologies for energy storage, with a focus on Li-ion and Zn-ion batteries. As the need for high-performance, safe, and sustainable energy solutions intensifies, carbon materials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, graphite, and other graphitic materials are proving essential. These materials significantly enhance conductivity, stability, and capacity. This Special Issue invites research on innovative carbon-based electrodes, hybrid materials, and mechanistic studies that advance battery performance. Future contributions may extend to emerging battery systems like Na-ion and K-ion systems, aiming to offer critical insights and propel the development of next-generation energy storage technologies.

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. C 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 1600 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.
