Journal of Inorganic and Organometallic Polymers and Materials Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Schiff base metal complexes are a class of compounds that have been studied extensively because of their attractive chemical and physical properties, and their wide-ranging applications in numerous scientific areas. Researchers have incorporated Schiff base complexes into polymers, generating new materials with useful mechanical, thermal, chemical, and electronic properties. This work comprehensively reviews the developments in macromolecules containing Schiff base metal complexes, emphasizing new synthetic strategies and characterization techniques that were used to prepare and study these polymers.
