Functional Nanomaterials Based on Self-Assembly

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the design and creation of new functional nanosystems and nanomaterials similar in properties to biological systems have been actively developing as an interdisciplinary field of research at the intersection of chemistry, biology, and physics. The base for the creation of such nanomaterials can involve both organic and inorganic components, including synthetic molecules (small and macrocyclic molecules), nanostructures (nanoparticles, organic-inorganic complexes), and natural polymers (nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates).

This Special Issue of Nanomaterials, entitled “Functional Nanomaterials Based on Self-Assembly”, aims to collect articles or reviews that highlight synthesis, modification, properties, and applications in various areas related to functional nanosystems and nanomaterials. We would like to invite scientists of diverse backgrounds (materials science, organic and inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, and biology) to contribute their research to this Special Issue.

Dr. Pavel Padnya
Guest Editor

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. 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 2400 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.
