Chemical Science

Your unique discoveries deserve to be celebrated. We are a home to world-leading interdisciplinary research from every aspect of the chemical sciences. We offer an open and trusted venue for your articles to flourish, and we are not afraid of publishing research that goes beyond the ordinary.

Too bold? Too progressive? No such thing

Scope

Our journal has a wide-ranging scope which covers the full breadth of the chemical sciences. The research we publish contains the sorts of novel ideas, challenging questions and progressive thinking that bring undiscovered breakthroughs within reach.

Your paper could focus on a single area, or cross many. It could be beyond the accepted bounds of the chemical sciences. It might address an immediate challenge, contribute to a future breakthrough or be wholly conceptual.

We're a team from every field of the chemical sciences, and know from experience that breakthroughs that drive the solutions to global challenges can come from anywhere, at any time. You could even start an entirely new area of research.

Chemical Science has a broad remit. We want bold papers that really challenge the status quo. So if you think something’s particularly controversial, new or exciting – well, that’s exactly the kind of paper we want.
