Periodicals

ADVANCED POROUS MATERIALS (ISSN: 2327-394, American Scientific Publishers) is an international peer-reviewed journal, launched in 2013 and edited by Professor Ajayan Vinu of the University of South Australia. It publishes research papers on the fundamental aspects, synthesis, characterization and applications of micro, meso-, nano- and macro-porous materials. The journal also offers reports on  the energy and environmental applications of advanced porous materials that address problems arising from climate change.

You can read reviews, full-length papers and short articles on: zeolites, zeotypes, metal organic frameworks, layered materials, porous carbons, nitrides, metals, polymers, phosphides, chalcogenides, transition metal oxides, hydroxyapatite, gels, fibers, ceramics, glasses, membranes, and thermoelectric materials, mesoporous silica, amorphous and crystalline mesoporous metallosilicates, mesoporous hybrid materials, nanocomposites, porous organic molecules, graphenes and open framework materials; their applications in catalysis, sensing, adsorption, separation, drug delivery, magnetism, battery, supercapacitors, solar cells, nanodevices and fine chemical synthesis.
