The Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society (JBCS) is a full open access journal. All articles published by the JBCS are made freely and permanently accessible online immediately upon publication, without any subscription charges or registration barriers.

Article-Processing Charges (APC)

Authors are required to pay an article-processing charge (APC) to help cover the publication costs for their articles. The APC will be applicable only after manuscript acceptance by Editors. Note that the manuscript evaluation by Peer Review is performed as usual.
