Introducing the scope of the new journal, Innovation of Chemistry & Materials for Sustainability (Innov. Chem. Mater. Sustain.) 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,
  • CO2 capture, utilization and carbon neutrality
  • Chemistry and materials for circular economy
  • Nano-materials for energy generation, water treatment, and environmental remediation.
