Porous materials for applications in sustainable energy and environmental technologies

Submissions now open

Deadline: 09 March 2027
Guest Editors: Hai-Long Jiang, University of Science and Technology of China
Yusuke Yamauchi, University of Queensland
Professor Hoi Ri Moon, Ewha Womans University
Jier Huang, Boston College

This collection will showcase the latest advances in porous materials and highlight their applications in Sustainable Energy and Environmental Technologies. The collection will focus on innovative synthetic strategies, structure-property relationships, defect/interface engineering, scalable manufacturing and advanced characterization/preparation methods enabling precise control of framework composition and functionality. Key to the collection is the application of reticular materials in addressing global sustainability challenges, particularly in energy conversion and storage, catalysis, carbon capture and utilization and environmental processes.

Topics suitable for the collection include, but are not limited to:

  • Design and synthesis of MOFs, COFs, and porous coordination networks
  • Defect, interface, and hierarchical structure control
  • Computational and AI-assisted discovery of porous materials
  • Gas storage, separation, and carbon capture technologies
  • Catalytic processes for energy and environmental applications
  • Porous materials in electrocatalysis, batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells

Please note that this open call is open to primary research submissions only.

Submissions should fit within the scope of Journal of Materials 91AV A, ChemCommDalton Transactions, and CrystEngComm – Please see the journal websites for more information on the scopes, standards, article types and author guidelines. All manuscripts will undergo the normal initial assessment and peer review processes, if appropriate, in line with the journal’s high standards, managed by the journal editors. Accepted manuscripts will be added to the online collection as soon as they are published and will feature in a regular issue of the relevant journal. Please note that peer review or acceptance is not guaranteed.

If you would like to contribute to this themed collection, you can submit your article directly to the online submission service for Journal of Materials 91AV AChemCommDalton Transactions or CrystEngComm. Please mention that this submission is a contribution to the Porous materials for applications in sustainable energy and environmental technologies collection in the “Themed issues” section of the submission form and add a “Note to the Editor” that this is from the Open Call. The Editorial Office reserves the right to check suitability of submissions in relation to the scope of both the journal and the collection, and inclusion of accepted articles in the final themed issue is not guaranteed.

Please also note that all submissions will be subject to initial assessment and rigorous peer review to meet the usual high standards of Journal of Materials 91AV AChemCommDalton Transactions and CrystEngComm.
