Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanocomposites are composed of several nanomaterials with at least two or more phases at nano-sized dimensions, which can also be embedded within a bulk material. These nanomaterials show various properties and functions depending on the compositions, structures and the design strategies for the nanocomposites, and have been applied in various fields. The nanocomposite can integrate different functional nanomaterials into one multifunction material, which can serve as multimodalities. The simple and facile synthesis method is being continuously explored to overcome certain drawbacks such as its high complexity and the difficulty of controlling it effectively. The high flexibility of the composition strategy has allowed various kinds of nanocomposites to be developed and applied in almost all fields in the past few decades.
There is now a need to summarize these nanocomposite materials from those applications to enable a comprehensive understanding of the requirements and strategies for specific filed implementation. In this Special Issue, we are seeking reviews and research articles on nanocomposite and hybrid nanomaterials for cutting-edge technologies for the drug delivery, targeting therapy, phototherapy, sensing, imaging, regeneration, catalysis, analysis, engineering, energy, environmental treatment, microbial control, and other integrated 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. 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.
