Bridging Materials Science, Engineering and Sustainable Systems for Global Resource Efficiency
The Journal of Sustainable Materials and Circular Economy (SMCE) bridges cutting-edge fundamental research, applied engineering and industrial implementation, leading the global transition to resource-efficient, low-carbon and eco-friendly societies. Adhering to interdisciplinary integration and industry-university-research collaboration, SMCE equally values engineering technological innovation and sustainable development-related research in economics, policy and social fields, emphasizing the combination of theory and practice.
SMCE features a comprehensive and focused research scope, covering all core directions of sustainable materials and circular economic research with interdisciplinary breadth and professional depth, including:
- Circular economy principles in materials science and industrial ecosystems
- Sustainable construction materials and eco‑efficient building technologies
- Life‑cycle assessment, carbon footprint and environmental impact analysis
- Sustainable packaging and renewable polymer development
- Bio‑based composites, biodegradable plastics and green chemistry
- Recycling and high‑value valorization of industrial, agricultural and electronic waste
- Advanced materials for renewable energy, batteries and energy storage
- Smart and multifunctional sustainable materials for infrastructure and industry
- Eco‑design, resource efficiency and closed‑loop manufacturing
- Energy‑efficient and low‑carbon material production technologies
- Policy, economic and social drives for sustainable materials adoption
- Circular economy case studies across industrial sectors
As a key academic communication platform for global researchers, industrial practitioners and policymakers in sustainable materials and circular economy, SMCE provides comprehensive, professional cutting-edge references and practical guidance for all stakeholders. We warmly welcome scholars worldwide in relevant fields to submit high-quality manuscripts.
