Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to seek your unpublished contributions for this Special Issue on "Design, Structure, and Performance of Novel Composite Materials for Sustainable Energy Applications." This multidisciplinary Special Issue aims to explore the intersection of material science and sustainable energy solutions. Researchers and experts are invited to submit papers that delve into, but are not limited to, the innovative use of composite materials to address the challenges of advancing sustainable energy technologies, the design principles behind these novel composite materials, and analyzing their underlying structures at various scales from polymer, metal, ceramic, and bio-based composites. Submissions could focus on the synthesis techniques, manufacturing processes, characterization methodologies, or properties such as efficiency, durability, overall viability, and more.
Ultimately, this Special Issue aims to foster a deeper understanding of the intricate relationship between composite material design, its structural attributes, and its pivotal role in driving sustainable energy advancements. By sharing insights and discoveries, the academic community endeavors to accelerate the development of materials that can reshape the landscape of renewable energy for a more sustainable future.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
