New Trends in Energy Conversion and Storage Materials

Dear Colleagues,

Conventional fossil-fuel-based vehicles inevitably lead to huge carbon dioxide emissions and cause a series of global warming effects. To alleviate the aforementioned issues, researching and developing new materials and strategies for energy conversion and/or energy storage are truly essential. Fortunately, chemistry and material science in relation to energy conversion and energy storage have been quickly developing, which is promising for eco-friendly purposes.

This Special Issue, entitled “New Trends in Energy Conversion and Storage Materials”, will collect studies focused on recent progress in energy conversion and energy storage, including material aspects and strategy aspects. Relevant manuscripts on the synthesis and characterization of novel materials and their applications in different fields, such as photocatalytic, piezo-catalytic/photocatalytic, electrochemical, sono-catalytic/photocatalytic, water-splitting processes, etc., can be submitted for this Special Issue. To facilitate readership, broad article types are available and welcome, namely research articles, communications, letters, and review articles.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
