Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical devices are attracting major attention in the fields of sensing, batteries, supercapacitors, water splitting reaction, CO2 reduction, fuel cells, electrocatalysis, and ecc. The direct conversion of chemical into electrical energy represents a smart solution in the field of energy storage and conversion. On the other hand, the direct acquisition of an electrical signal stemming from an analyte presence represents a quick and simple method for the development of a sensor. Nanomaterials are a powerful tool to boost performances of electrochemical devices due to their high surface/volume ratio, surface reactivity, and improved accessibility.
In this Special Issue, we welcome research papers and reviews focusing on the recent applications, synthesis, and characterization of nanomaterials for electrochemistry, as well as cutting-edge technological strategies for their use in real life. We would like to discuss the challenges that their development will bring. Long-term stability, low cost, and high efficiency should be obtained to attain a high technology readiness level for commercialization and to achieve a real impact on every-day life.

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.
