Dear Colleagues,

Among different types of technologies, those based on electrochemical principles are easy to produce in a minimally sized format and at a low cost. However, during the process of designing such products, it is very important to consider the impact of their disposal in the environment and a “green” production. A proper selection of sustainable materials and processes could minimize the waste in manufacturing and use. The potentiality that electrochemical devices have to be entirely made of materials from renewable sources makes them even more industrially appealing.

Given these premises, this Special Issue aims at reporting the most recent research findings in the field of biodegradable electrochemical devices. Platforms of interest include batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors and electrochemical sensors and biosensors. Topics could span from novel technological advances to applications. Both review articles and research papers on the specific subjects of this issue are welcome.

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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
