Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce a forthcoming Special Issue of Materials titled "Ionic Liquids: Pioneering Frontiers in Advanced Applications". Ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as a versatile class of solvents with unique properties, making them invaluable in various fields, including chemistry, materials science, and environmental science. This Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research and insights into the innovative applications of ILs, showcasing their diverse and promising uses.
This collection will feature contributions that delve into the synthesis, characterization, and utilization of ILs in novel ways. Topics of interest include ILs in catalysis, green chemistry, electrochemistry, separations, energy storage, and beyond. We encourage authors to present original research, comprehensive reviews, and perspective articles highlighting the advancements and challenges in harnessing the potential of ILs. By providing a platform for the latest developments in this dynamic field, we hope to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the exceptional properties of ionic liquids and inspire further exploration of their limitless applications.
I look forward to your contributions to this exciting Special Issue.
Sincerely,
Dr. Paula Ossowicz-Rupniewska
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. Materials 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 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs).
