Advanced Electrode Material for Electrochemical Production Conversion and Storage of Energy

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, most research has the overall objective of contributing to the development of materials and processes for electrochemical production, conversion, and storage of energy. Many studies have been carried out in the electrochemistry field to study, synthesize, and characterize anodic and cathodic active materials for batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, and electrolysers. The main desirable features in these devices are small size, a high specific energy, low environmental impact, and low costs. Also, regarding the abovementioned electrochemical systems, the production process of electrodes, the study of the interaction between electrode materials and electrolyte, the characterization of electrocatalysts for HER, HRR, OER, and ORR, the electrochemical reaction kinetics, heat transfer, and structural mechanics for fuel cell and battery optimization, and the fluid dynamic design of electrodes, involving electro-chemical and thermo-chemical phenomena, are very important topics requiring thorough investigation.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to publish high-quality research papers as well as review articles addressing recent advances on electrode materials for electrochemical production, conversion, and storage of energy. Original, high-quality contributions that are not yet published or that are not currently under review by other journals or peer-reviewed conferences are sought.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Inventions 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 1800 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.
