Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the development and application of sustainable materials. Research includes novel polymer synthesis for electrochromic applications, the use of MXenes for ion migration, chemical mechanical polishing of superalloys, and pyrometallurgical recycling of permanent magnets. It also covers sustainable composites, natural fiber-based insulation materials, self-cleaning nanomaterials for building facades, metal-free catalysts for chemical reductions, and covalent organic frameworks for photocatalysis. The journal also explores piezoelectric materials and their integration with artificial intelligence.
