Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the development of nano-technology, nanomaterials have received extensive attention in the fields of environment, healthy, medical, detection, and energy, etc. From among various nanomaterials, nanofibers have recently been attracting a great deal of interest from researchers recently due to the variety of amazing characteristics they possess including large specific surface areas, high aspect ratio and pore volume, excellent pore interconnectivity, and superior mechanical performance. Electrospinning is the most common method to prepare nanofibers with diameters that range from several nanometers to hundreds of nanometers. Most importantly, nanofibers with unique composition, structure or function design may provide better stability, response, function, and integrality to a variety of applications, and these attributes can be achieved via electrospinning. Therefore, we are convinced that electrospun nanofiber have great potential applications in the future.
This Special Issue of Nanomaterials, entitled “Advance in Electrospun Nanofibers”, will concentrate on presenting the current state of the art of the use of nanofibers in various areas. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, advances in or studies in the following topics:
- Eletrospun nanofiber preparation principles and model analysis;
- Nanofiber-based sensor device;
- Nanofiber in the application of fuel cells;
- Nanofiber filter material;
- Nanofiber in piezoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerators.
We sincerely invite all the researchers to contribute to this Special Issue, which welcomes experimental and theoretical original research papers, communications, and reviews 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 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.
