Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the past decade, conducting polymer-based nanocomposites have gained momentum in the design of materials with synergistic properties by overcoming the inherent limitations of pure materials. Compared with traditional conductive materials (e.g., carbon-based materials, metal-based materials), conducting polymer-based nanocomposites demonstrate excellent electrochemical activity, good processability, light weight, high flexibility, and other outstanding properties which have led to their wide use in various scientific fields: in energy storage devices, sensors, flexible electronics, biomedical technology, and so forth.
This Special Issue focuses on all relevant aspects of conducting polymer-based nanocomposites, from design to manufacturing, characterization, performance evaluation of materials and their applications in various fields, including, but not limited to, flexible electronics, supercapacitors, batteries, sensors, energy harvesting devices, EMI shielding, and biomedicine. We invite authors to share their latest investigations in the form of original research articles and reviews.

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.
