RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces are pleased to announce the launch of a new series of themed collections in support of the Global Sustainable Development Goals initiated by the United Nations.
These collections highlight the current research taking place by scientists across the globe which demonstrates the ways in which chemical science is helping to make the world a better place.
RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces are delighted to share the new collection centred around:

Sustainable Development Goal 12: Responsible Production and Consumption
This SDG collection focuses on Sustainable Development Goal 12: responsible production and consumption. Articles in this collection showcase the inventive means in which chemical scientists are striving to improve the synthesis and consumption of materials across various industries by developing sustainable sources and processes which do not rely upon the destruction of the Earth’s resources, and which provides cleaner environmental outcomes. |
Don’t forget that RSC Applied Polymers and RSC Applied Interfaces are both Gold open access journals, that means all our articles are free to read, including our new Sustainable Development Goals collections! The highly applied and interdisciplinary work included in these collections serve as a perfect example of the kind of papers we would like to see more of in RSC Applied Interfaces and RSC Applied Polymers.
