RSC Applied Interfaces is now open for submissions

Welcoming applied interfacial and surface research

RSC Applied Interfaces is your new dedicated, interdisciplinary home for applied interfacial and surface research – and we are now open for submissions.

Submit your research

We are looking for cutting-edge research that identifies the role of interfaces and interfacial processes to determine the properties and functionalities of materials. Our scope is broad – we welcome application-focused manuscripts on protective coatings, surface engineering and functionalisation, 2D materials and so much more. We are also interested in articles that advance several UN Sustainable Development Goals, including the goals on good health and well-being, clean water and sanitation, and affordable and clean energy.
