Issue 6 of Green Chemistry is now available to read online.
The front cover this month features work by Mihai Irimia-Vladu and co-workers from Linz, Austria. In their work, they report the use of the natural resin shellac in organic field-effect transistors. Biocompatible and sustainable electronic-grade materials such as shellac are integral for the development of electronics for biointegration and ‘use-and-throw’ applications.

Natural resin shellac as a substrate and a dielectric layer for organic field-effect transistors
M. Irimia-Vladu, E.D. Głowacki, G. Schwabegger, L. Leonat, H.Z. Akpinar, H. Sitter, S. Bauer and N.S. Sariciftci
Green Chem., 2013, 15, 1473-1476, DOI: 10.1039/C3GC40388B
The inside front cover this month features work by Bert F. Sels and co-workers from Heverlee, Belgium. In their work, they look at how ordered porous inorganic–organic nanocomposites and nanohybrids enable the acquirement of tailor-made properties, resulting in highly performing catalysts for applications in fine chemistry and biomass conversion.
