Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 6th EPNOE International Polysaccharide Conference was an initiative of EPNOE, the Cellulose and Renewable Division of the American Chemistry Society (ACS), and the Cellulose Society of Japan (CSJ) and was hosted in Aveiro, Portugal (https://epnoe2019.sciencesconf.org/).
The ambition of the EPNOE International Polysaccharides Conferences is to bring together researchers from academia and industry working on or interested in polysaccharide-related R&D topics, to disseminate results and to promote a networking platform for close interactions between academia and industry.
The scientific program was structured in Thematic Sessions covering different areas where polysaccharides have a relevant role, including several topics on polysaccharide-based nanomaterials, co-organized by scientific experts in each field.
The event provided an opportunity for delegates to discuss and share knowledge, ideas, and expertise with colleagues and peers.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
