Vol 3 / No 1 (2026)Vol. 3 No. 1 (2026)
This issue presents six contributions that span three closely connected fronts of sustainable-materials research. A first group addresses water-pollution control, examining how advanced photocatalysts and adsorbents can be engineered to remove organic dyes and pharmaceutical residues from aqueous systems. A second group focuses on nanofiber and membrane fabrication science, where electrospinning and related techniques are used to translate active materials into self-standing, retrievable architectures suitable for repeated deployment. A third contribution extends the issue's scope toward energy conversion, using device-level simulation to map optimization pathways for next-generation thin-film photovoltaics.
Read together, these papers reflect a shared methodological outlook: the deliberate pairing of materials design with operational practicality — recoverability, scalability, and device-level performance — that increasingly defines sustainable-materials engineering. They also illustrate the field's growing tendency to treat fabrication strategy, material composition, and end-use performance as a single integrated design problem rather than as separate optimization steps. -
Vol 2 / No 2 (2025)Vol. 2 No. 2 (2025)
The second issue of Greensusmater in 2025 brings together innovative research at the intersection of materials science, environmental sustainability, and nanotechnology. This edition highlights how materials design and modification can enhance performance in diverse applications—ranging from wastewater treatment to energy storage. This volume features studies on tailoring crystallinity and magnetism of SiO₂@NiZnFe₂O₄ nanoparticles via thermal annealing, hydrogel synthesis from natural taro starch using a freeze-thaw method, and eco-friendly carbon dots synthesized from plant extracts. Additionally, readers will find advanced investigations on niobium-doped BiVO₄ for photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics and dyes, as well as molybdenum-doped Nb₂O₅ electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors. Together, these contributions reinforce the journal's commitment to green, functional, and sustainable materials research.
