This article is an overview of the current state of nanoparticles because of their emerging usage in cancer treatment, covering nanoparticles that have been authorized for use in cancer therapy currently undergoing clinical testing. Recent advances in nanoparticle engineering, coupled with an enhanced understanding of critical nanoparticle attributes (size, shape, and surface properties) in conjunction…

Graphene-based materials: Unravelling its impact in wastewater treatment for sustainable environments

K Iqbal Rana, Harjot Kaur, Nirankar Singh et al. · 12 Jan 2024

Toxic pollutant contamination of water resources is a significant problem. Numerous aquatic systems are tainted by various hazardous inorganic and organic species introduced by wastewater from different human sources, including domestic homes, businesses, farms, and mining. Given this, treating wastewater is the primary environmental challenge. An overview of recent advancements in materials based on graphene…

Polymer-enhanced concrete: A comprehensive review of innovations and pathways for resilient and sustainable materials

Babatunde Abiodun Salami, Ashraf A. Bahraq, Moinul Haq et al. · 11 May 2024

This study explores the enhanced performance and sustainability of polymer enhanced concrete, focusing on polymer concrete (PC) by incorporating synthetic polymers, including polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride. Distinguished by synthetic polymeric binders, PC demonstrates superior attributes, such as improved strength-to-weight ratios, durability, and chemical resistance, surpassing traditional concrete. The study delves into advanced applications…

Photodegradation and photocatalysis of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS): A review of recent progress

Sanny Verma, Bineyam Mezgebe, Charifa A. Hejase et al. · 20 Dec 2023

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are oxidatively recalcitrant organic synthetic compounds. PFAS are an exceptional group of chemicals that have significant physical characteristics due to the presence of the most electronegative element (i.e., fluorine). PFAS persist in the environment, bioaccumulate, and have been linked to toxicological impacts. Epidemiological and toxicity studies have shown that PFAS…

Next Materials template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Next Materials format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Next Materials template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Elsevier format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Next Materials use?
Next Materials uses Numbered (Elsevier) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, C. Lee, A representative article title, Next Materials 12 (2023) 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Next Materials?
No. DocuGuru generates the elsarticle LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Elsevier-ready Next Materials document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Next Materials template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Next Materials format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes Next Materials?
Next Materials is a multidisciplinary journal published by Elsevier. DocuGuru's Next Materials template matches Elsevier's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Next Materials PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Next Materials template (the elsarticle class) that is ready to submit to Elsevier, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Next Materials template cost?
You can start writing in the Next Materials template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Next Materials PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
