Special Issue Information

Sustainable material innovation is central to addressing global challenges in clean energy, environmental protection, and advanced healthcare. Organic–inorganic hybrid materials, nanostructured systems, and bio-derived polymers are emerging as transformative solutions due to their tunable functionality, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility with green processing techniques.

This Special Issue aims to bring together cutting-edge research focusing on the design, synthesis, and application of sustainable hybrid materials. Particular emphasis will be placed on:

  • Low-cost and low-temperature processing
  • Circular economy and waste valorization
  • Interface engineering in hybrid systems
  • Multifunctional performance across energy, environmental, and biomedical domains

The issue will serve as a multidisciplinary platform bridging materials science, nanotechnology, and sustainability, encouraging collaboration between academia and industry.

Topics of interest
  • Organic–inorganic hybrid materials for sustainability
  • Biopolymers (chitosan, lignin, cellulose) and green composites
  • Graphene and carbon nanomaterials for energy/environment
  • Biomaterials for tissue engineering and drug delivery
  • Quantum dots and nanostructures in photovoltaics
  • Advanced coatings for durability and corrosion resistance
  • Low-temperature and solution-based processing technologies
  • Self-healing, smart, and responsive sustainable materials
  • Hybrid materials for solar cells, batteries, and supercapacitors
  • Functional nanocomposites for water purification and air remediation
  • Waste-to-value materials and circular economy strategies
  • Life cycle assessment (LCA) and eco-design of materials
Benefits of submitting by the deadline
  • No article processing charges
  • Complimentary language editing
