Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanoparticles are gaining more scientific interest as they act as a bridge between atomic/molecular structures and bulk materials. The fascinating and unanticipated characteristics of the nanoparticles surpass the contributions made by the small bulk materials. This potential of the nanoparticles leads to the advent of novel well-performing catalytic materials and technologies. Alternatively, the nanocomposites that integrate nanoparticles into the matrices of other materials exhibit extraordinary flexibility and stability with much enhancement in their fundamental properties. Numerous nanoparticles are synthesized and nanocomposites fabricated by researchers using various methods and techniques. The area is still wide open to discover the optimum ways to improve the yield of the nanomaterials and, importantly, the reproducibility. Similarly, the synergy arises out of compositing the nanomaterials and potential applications, thereby leading to enormous investigations, and such is the scope of the present Special Issue, which focuses on “Synthesis and Application of Nanoparticles and Nanocomposites”. This Special Issue aims to offer a forum for the prompt publication of original and high-quality research with an emphasis on synthesis, assembly, characterization, the simulation of nanostructures and their potential applications. Research and review articles are welcomed.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
