Introduction

Welcome

You are warmly invited to join us in July 2025. The international conference on materials chemistry has been a key meeting in the materials calendar for three decades.

Organised by the 新月直播app下载, the 2025 conference will host leading materials researchers from around the world. It's the flagship event for the RSC Materials Chemistry Community and you can be a part of it.

Oral and poster presentation opportunities are available to researchers of all career stages and we invite you to submit an abstract to make your contribution. The conference promises to be a great forum for materials chemists to network with and build strong collaborations within their community and related disciplines.

Themes

For MC17 we have a programme covering materials chemistry in all its breadth and diversity. There are four main themes, listed below. Plenary lectures will highlight advances across the themes and keynote speakers will describe leading work within each theme.

Functional inorganic materials
Experimental and computational studies of inorganic materials with notable mechanical, electronic, optical, magnetic, ferroic, catalytic, conducting or other properties, including novel approaches to prediction, synthesis, characterisation and measurements. 

Materials for energy and sustainability
Experimental and computational studies of materials applied in energy generation, storage and conversion, as well as other areas of sustainability including recycling, critical materials use and green chemistry.

Nano and porous materials
Experimental and computational studies related to the synthesis, characterisation and application of nano-sized materials, micro-, meso- and macroporous materials encompassing porous inorganic, organic and hybrid materials and composites.

Soft matter and biomaterials
Experimental and computational studies related to natural and synthetic soft materials, their characterisation and applications in biotechnology, biomedicine and sustainable technologies.

Abstract submission

Oral abstracts

Submit your oral abstract before 27 January 2025 under one of the four themes:
  • Functional inorganic materials
  • Materials for energy and sustainability
  • Nano and porous materials
  • Soft matter and biomaterials
While MC17 is organised into these four broad themes, we acknowledge that materials chemistry is a multidisciplinary field and some topics may fall into more than one theme. Abstracts are welcomed in all areas of materials chemistry – when submitting your abstract please choose the theme most relevant to you.

Poster abstracts

Submit your poster abstract by 28 April 2025. Posters are displayed throughout the meeting. A poster prize will be awarded to the best poster presented at the conference.

Additional information

Authors will be notified of the outcome of the review process within about 10 weeks of the oral submission deadline, and 4 weeks of the poster submission deadline. Please ensure you provide the details of the presenting author.
