Energy, environment and health care are amongst the top priorities of our society. Such issues have sparked phenomenal interest in inorganic nano-materials as they hold great promise to develop new advanced devices and equipment which revolutionise the way we live. Investigating the hierarchical structuration of materials on the nanoscale has revealed unprecedented physical (optics, magnetism, etc.) and chemical (e.g. catalysis, energy conversion and storage) properties that are absent in bulk matter of the same chemical composition. These specific functionalities are the consequence of a complex multi-level and hierarchical organisation (chemical, structural, textural) of the architecture of inorganic nanomaterials. The global properties and functional performances largely depend on the extent to which these levels are mastered during the synthesis process. The development of the society depends on materials: no materials, no progress. ACIN 2018 is a five days scientific meeting jointly organised by the University of Namur, the Wuhan University of Technology and the Université Catholique de Louvain.
