The Royal Society of Chemistry has launched two new journals centred on innovative applied interfacial and polymer research. These are the RSC's first pair of publications focused solely on applied science breakthroughs.
RSC Applied Interfaces and RSC Applied Polymers will showcase the latest interdisciplinary research as part of its burgeoning materials portfolio. In order to address some of the major issues affecting the world today, the chemical sciences community can benefit by sharing information about recent studies.
These new journals are both Gold Open Access, meaning articles will be freely available online for anyone, anywhere to read. The Royal Society of Chemistry will also pay for all article processing charges (APCs) until mid-2025, making it free for researchers to publish their work.
Two highly prominent experts in their respective fields have accepted the editor-in-chief positions for these new titles. Professor Emily Pentzer, an associate professor of materials science and engineering at Texas A&M University in the USA, has been named the first editor-in-chief of RSC Applied Polymers.
The inaugural editor-in-chief of RSC Applied Interfaces is Professor Federico Rosei, a professor and a former director of the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique, Énergie, Matériaux et Télécommunications in Varennes (QC), Canada.
