Journal of Materials Chemistry Blog

This year we are proud to celebrate 10 years since the launch of Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C as three separate titles.

The vision of Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C was to provide venues for highly topical research in a broad range of materials chemistry across three distinguished journal scopes. Since the pilot issues were published at the beginning of 2013, we have continued to publish a diverse range of impactful research across the global materials chemistry community and covering the full breadth of our discipline.

We are delighted to announce a number of initiatives to celebrate the 10^th anniversary of Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C. You can find out more about our activities below:
