Editorial 

 

 

The launch of this first issue of the EQJ of 2018 reflects a significant step of this new 

phase of the journal, by publishing seven original articles to the scientific community. As the 

readers can see, the papers cover several areas of Chemistry, in line with the editorial profile of 

the EQJ, such as: synthesis of bimetallic nanoparticles applied in medicine degradation studies, 

dye photocatalytic degradation using TiO2, chemical constituents of Piperaceae and their 

antifungal activities, heterogeneous catalyst applied on cycloaddition reactions, removal of textile 

dye using particles prepared from macaúba kernel cake, complexation of metallic ions with fulvic 

acids, and thermal analysis of Mn(II)-diclofenac complex. 

From now on, it is expected that the visibility of the articles will reach a new level due to 

a sequence of procedures developed by the Editors and staff, which culminated in the indexing of 

the EQJ in several international databases, such as Scopus and other Elsevier products. It is 

unquestionable the high significance of this fact that may catalyze the interest of the community 

in submitting new articles to the EQJ. 

The Editor and his team would like to recognize authors and reviewers for their expressive 

collaboration. 

Eclética Química Journal specially thanks the Director of the Institute of Chemistry of 

UNESP for the significant support provided in the successful accomplishment of this new phase 

of the journal.
