A new journal from the American Chemical Society coming January 2009…
The new international forum for applied materials science and engineering
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces is being launched with the goal of becoming the international publication of choice for the interdisciplinary community of chemists, engineers, physicists and biologists focusing on how newly-discovered materials and interfacial processes can be developed and used for specific applications. The journal will publish full length articles and letters from researchers in academia and industry in addition to featuring comments and forums dedicated to advancing applied materials research. The introduction of
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, with its focus on applications,will enhance the portfolio of existing ACS publications focusing on fundamental materials science discovery, including
Chemistry of Materials, Langmuir, Biomacromolecules, Macromolecules and
The Journal of Physical ChemistryB and C.
The American Chemical Society, the world’s largest scientific society and the leading publisher in chemistry and its related disciplines, has the resources and is committed to making
ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces the leading publication in its field.
“
Applied Materials & Interfaces is a key, strategic addition to the ACS Publications portfolio. The journal will be the first in the area of ACS materials publication to focus on applied science and engineering and will establish itself as one of the highest visibility journals in the broad area of applied polymer and materials science interfaces.”
