Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ideal electrocatalysts often need high stability, high electrical conductivity, suitable reactivity, and a large surface area. In this regard, two-dimensional (2D) materials are the promising candidates because they possess these desired properties. It, therefore, presents an exciting field in which the 2D materials are designed for specific catalytic reactions, such as water splitting, synthesis of value-added commodity chemicals, CO2 reduction and ammonia production. In addition, 2D materials can be carefully controlled by engineering defects, stain, and components to optimise their catalytic performance through theoretical and experimental studies. The interests of this hot topic motivate this Special Issue, which is to cover the recent progress and trends in designing and evaluating advanced 2D materials for electrocatalytic applications.

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. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2700 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.
