Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gas–liquid–solid interface characterization and directional regulation play an important role in the fields of materials science, chemical engineering, energy technology, and environmental science. The research is not only important for understanding the interfacial behavior, but also provides the possibility of the accurate regulation and optimization of interfacial properties. Gas–liquid–solid interface is a widespread phenomenon in nature. Behind these phenomena are complex physical and chemical mechanisms, including surface tension, wettability, and interfacial reactions. The in-depth study of gas–liquid–solid interface behavior and regulatory mechanisms through scientific characterization methods can provide a theoretical basis for the development of related technologies.
This Special Issue will report research or advances in the characterization and targeted regulation of gas–liquid–solid interfaces, including the regulation of the structure, composition, or environmental conditions of these interfaces, as well as the interface wettability, adhesion, reactivity, and so on. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Directional regulation of gas–liquid–solid interfaces in fine mineral flotation separation;
- Interfacial regulation in the preparation of nanomaterials and functional materials;
- Interfacial regulation to improve reaction efficiency and product purity;
- Interface regulation to improve the energy conversion efficiency and stability;
- Interfacial regulation in wastewater treatment, oil–water separation, and air purification.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
