Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Porous nanomaterials are defined as those with pore sizes less than 100 nm. Porous materials are of scientific and technological importance due to their excellent functional and structural characteristics. They are lightweight materials with low bulk density, high surface area, low thermal conductivity, good permeability, energy management applications, noise attenuation, vibration suppression, and other characteristics. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest and research work in the synthesis, characterization, functionalization, molecular modeling, and design of nanoporous materials. Porous nanomaterials are increasingly used in many fields, such as (bio)sensors, drug delivery, gas separation, energy storage, fuel cell technology, nanocatalysis and photonics.
This special issue aims to collect papers on new advances or breakthroughs in the design, synthesis, properties and applications of porous nanomaterials. We welcome outstanding researchers from all over the world to submit their latest, original and creative works to the journal before the submission deadline.
Dr. Yannick Guari

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.
