Scope
Electrochemical energy conversion is playing increasingly important role in renewable energy storage. The past few years have witnessed a rapid growth in electrochemical energy conversion materials and devices. This symposium aims to bring together researchers who are interested in, and actively working on, this dynamic field of research, and provide them a platform to showcase and learn about the latest findings in this fast-growing field. The symposium covers, but is not limited to, both experimental and theoretical studies of advanced materials that can find applications in water electrolyzers, fuel cells, and photoelectrochemical cells.
Publication Opportunity
All the interested attendees who are willing to publish their articles can submit their full-length manuscript to be published in this Special Issue which will cover recent progress and developments in the creation of bioinspired materials for catalysis. Nanomaterials (ISSN 2076-4991) is an international and interdisciplinary scholarly open access journal. It publishes reviews, regular research papers, communications, and short notes that are relevant to any field of study that involves nanomaterials, with respect to their science and application.
Kindly prepare the manuscript as per the instructions mentioned in the journal website. https://www.mdpi.com/journal/nanomaterials/special_issues/nano_biomimetric_catalysts
