Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanotechnology offers fundamentally new capabilities to architect a broad array of novel materials, composites, and structures on a molecular scale, and with the continued advancement in nanotechnology and numerous innovative nanomaterials, they have emerged as golden materials for certain applications in information technology, electronics, building materials, household appliances, textiles, cosmetics, food, environmental technologies, energy technologies, and medicine, etc. The last decade has seen advancements in every side of nanotechnologies, such as nanoparticles and powders; nanolayers and coatings; electrical, optical, and mechanical nanodevices; and nanostructural biological materials. Presently, nanotechnology is estimated to be influential in all fields of science and technology within the next 20 to 30 years.
This Special Issue welcomes any cutting‐edge contributions leading in the mechanical engineering direction, including (but not limited to):
- Synthesis of nanomaterials and preparation of nanofluids;
- Detailed characterization of mechanical properties of nanofluids;
- Applicability assessment of materials for engineering applications (such as heat transfer and storage, hardening of alloys, pollution, biomedical engineering, etc.);
- Mathematical models for the prediction of properties of nanofluids and thermal performance of solar thermal technologies.

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. Sustainability 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 2400 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.
