Introducing the scope of the new journal, Innovation of Chemistry and Materials for Sustainability (ICMS) will cover all topics related to chemistry and materials in the widest possible sense, but there should be a sustainable chemistry aspect for successful submissions. ICMS publishes original papers, short communications and perspectives, and review articles in all areas of chemistry and materials for a safer and cleaner future. Interdisciplinary contributions are encouraged, encompassing a wide range of topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Catalysis (homogeneous, heterogeneous and bio-catalysis)
  • Green chemistry for sustainable processing routes (microwaves, ultrasounds, photochemistry, electrochemistry, flow chemistry, etc.)
  • Lipid valorization – Biorefining
  • Polymers: Synthetic polymers and elastomers, polymer membranes/ composites/ fibres, responsive / functional polymers, nano structured polymers, biocompatible and biodegradable polymers
  • Innovation of chemistry and materials for sustainable agriculture & pharmaceutical practices
  • Bio-based chemicals, fuels, materials
  • Renewable energy sources (wind, solar) and storage,
  • CO 2  capture, utilization and carbon neutrality
  • Chemistry and materials for circular economy
  • Nano-materials for energy generation, water treatment, and environmental remediation.
