Multidisciplinary Solutions
Many ACS journals are multidisciplinary and therefore are not included in our sample subject-area list. Even our specialized journals cover topics that support, or are supported by, a broad array of research areas. Consider the challenge of creating environmentally friendly surgical tools. There are many ways to accomplish this, and solutions can be found in journals covering pure chemistry, metallics, plastics, environmental science, materials science, and more.
More than one ACS journal could hold the answer you need. That’s why we provide numerous flexible options to support organizations of all types and sizes.
