Aims & Scope

A multidisciplinary journal focusing on cutting edge research across all fundamental science and technological aspects of catalysis. The journal places equal focus on publications from the heterogeneous, homogeneous, thermo-, electro-, photo-, organo- and biocatalysis communities. Works published in the journal feature a balanced mix of fundamental, technology-oriented, experimental, computational, digital and data-driven original research, thus appealing to catalysis practitioners in both academic and industrial environments. Original research articles published in the journal must demonstrate new catalytic discoveries and/or methodological advances that represent a significant advance on previously published work, from the molecular to the process scales. We welcome rigorous research in a wide range of timely or emerging applications related to the environment, health, energy and materials.

Frequently asked questions about Catalysis Science and Technology

Is Catalysis Science and Technology a predatory journal?

PubScope has no integrity flags on record for Catalysis Science and Technology: it is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, and is not on DOAJ's withdrawn list. Indexing is a transparency signal, not a guarantee — always confirm fit and policies before submitting.

What is the impact factor of Catalysis Science and Technology?

Catalysis Science and Technology is indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, so Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor for it (since the 2023 Journal Citation Reports, every Core Collection journal — including Arts & Humanities and Emerging Sources titles — receives one). PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date. Its open 2-year mean citedness is 3.14.

Is Catalysis Science and Technology indexed in Scopus and Web of Science?

Catalysis Science and Technology is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus.
