Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to present a versatile consideration of different kinds of nanocarbons, such as fullerenes, graphene, carbon nanotubes, nanoonions, nanowires, nanodiamonds, etc., in liquids. These systems have long been considered interesting from both a theoretical and applied point of view. Nevertheless, new features of the behavior of nanocarbons in both aqueous and organic media are constantly being revealed in the modern scientific literature. Potential topics of the present Special Issue are as follows:

  1. Preparation of nanocarbons’ suspensions and hydro(or organo)sols;
  2. Characterization and (possible) standardization of the systems;
  3. Chemical and physical properties;
  4. Stability with respect to electrolytes and other additives;
  5. Hybrid nanocarbon-based systems in solution;
  6. Behavior in the environment (soils, fresh water, etc.);
  7. Application in different technologies and medicine.

Of course, this is only an indicative list. Any new results or reviews (micro-reviews) related to the stated general topic are welcome.

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. Liquids is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.

The self-organization properties of C70 fullerene molecules in a xylene/tetrahydrofuran binary mixture were studied for the first time by optical absorption, refractometry, and dynamic light scattering. A correlation has been established between the change in the refractive index of the C70/xylene/tetrahydrofuran solution and the degree of self-organization of C70 molecules in the medium at various concentrations and storage periods of the solution. It is shown that the features of the optical absorption spectrum of C70/xylene/tetrahydrofuran at a fixed low concentration of fullerene are sensitive to its storage time. It was determined that the beginning time of the formation of C70 nanoclusters and their final size depend on the degree of concentration of fullerene and the time spent keeping the solution. The observed nature of the C70 fullerene solution in a binary mixture may help to elucidate its mechanism of self-organization in the future. Full article

The current state of the study of different liquid crystalline (LC) systems doped with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is discussed. An attempt is endeavored to outline the state-of-the-art technology that has emerged after two past decades. Systematization and analysis are presented for the integration of single- and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in thermotropic (nematic, smectic, cholesteric, ferroelectric, etc.) and lyotropic LCs. Special attention is paid to the effects of alignment and supramolecular organization resulting from orientational coupling between CNTs and the LC matrix. The effects of the specific inter-molecular and inter-particle interactions and intriguing microstructural, electromagnetic, percolation, optical, and electro-optical properties are also discussed.
