Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Engineered nanomaterials are increasingly being used for a wide range of applications, including industrial catalysts, medical products, cosmetics, consumer products, and food packaging. During the past two decades, substantial effort has been put into developing methods and improving analytical instrumentation for nanomaterial characterization, which has facilitated a better understanding of nanomaterial release and transformation through various stages of their life cycle. Proper quantification and characterization of nanomaterial release and, consequently, possible nanoexposure is of utmost importance to gain a better understanding of nanomaterial safety for both environment and consumers.
In this Special Issue, we invite submissions exploring nanomaterial release from various products/items through various stages of their life cycle, focusing on quantification of nanomaterial release, as well as submissions discussing the regulatory relevance of nanomaterial characterization and state-of-the-art methods. Contributions can be submitted as research papers, short communications, or reviews.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
