Physical Chemistry Research (PCR), abbreviated as Phys. Chem. Res., is an international peer-reviewed journal that covers all areas of physical chemistry and chemical physics. Published by the Iranian Chemical Society (ICS) as a non-profit, open-access journal, PCR accepts high-quality original research in the form of Regular Articles, Short Communications, and Reviews at a high scientific level. All submitted manuscripts undergo rigorous double-blind peer review. Also, the journal carefully screens all submissions to ensure compliance with acceptable plagiarism standards.
Submission, processing, and publication of manuscripts are entirely free of charge.
About the Publisher
Established in 1965, the Iranian Chemical Society (ICS) is a not-for-profit national association uniting chemistry students and professionals involved in the technology and science of chemistry in academia and industry in Iran. Among its many activities prior to the Iranian revolution in the Seventies, ICS held national and international level congresses where renowned scholars such as Professors R. Belcher, F.A. Cotton, C.S. Marvel, G.P. Haight, R.S. Mulliken, and L. Pauling presented their lectures, and many other outstanding figures in chemistry from all over the world participated.
After the Islamic revolution in Iran, the activities of society came to a standstill for a few years. In 1984, a group of well-known Iranian chemists stressed the need for a society. In a meeting held at the Iranian Ministry of Culture and Higher Education (later renamed to the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology), the above-mentioned group, designated as the Founding Board, was appointed to prepare the necessary articles and reconstruct the society. After the preparation and ratification of the articles by the Founding Board, the society was revived under the name of the Iranian Chemical and Chemical Engineering Society (which was again changed to the Iranian Chemical Society in 1993). The new constitution was ratified in a congress resulting in the election of the members, the ICS Senate, the president, and the Board of Directors for the first time after the revolution. Today, the Iranian Chemical Society with over six thousand members, is a well-known scientific society in the world. ICS currently has 12 scientific committees:
Each committee acts independently in coordination with the Board of Directors in planning, fund raising, and developing strategies for science production, education, and research. Motivated by the goal of reaching out to an increasingly global audience for international scientific exchange and collaboration, ICS is the publisher of six scientific journals: Journal of the Iranian Chemical Society (2014 Impact Factor: 1.087), Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry Research, Inorganic Chemistry Research, Organic Chemistry Research, Physical Chemistry Research, and Nanochemistry Research.
