Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) materials are a new type of material which have been widely used in gas storage, separation, catalysis, sensing, drug delivery, et al. because of their high porosity and surface area. The basic structural unit of MOFs consists of metal ions or clusters and organic ligands, which interact with each other through coordination bonds to form crystal structures, thus forming pores and voids. The superior performance of MOFs is mainly due to the regulability of their pore and surface characteristics. The future development direction of MOFs is very broad, including the field of environmental protection, photocatalysis, optoelectronics, and energy storage. Although MOFs faces some challenges and problems in the application process, their development prospect is still very broad, and they have great potential and application value. Therefore, this Special Issue, “Metal-Organic Frameworks-based Materials and Composites”, focuses on recent advances in MOFs-based materials in applications such as biosensing, adsorption, storage and separation, catalysis, drug loading and treatment, supercapacitors, photothermal diagnosis and treatment, et al. We invite submissions of research that helps to advance the field of MOFs and their application in multiple fields.

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). 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.
