Abstract


CSIR – Chemical Sciences laboratories are constituent laboratories of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), India. CSIR laboratories work on a wide spectrum of science and technology areas, including the chemical sciences, biotechnology, and nanotechnology, and play an important role in the field of chemical sciences by providing innovative and effective solutions to a wide range of chemical sciences problems in the country. This study tried to analyses the research publication of CSIR-Chemistry Science Laboratory from 2010 to 2019. The data of this study includes details of 20,601 publications extracted from the Web of Science Database. The extracted data were analysed on various parameters such as publication trend, the degree of collaboration and Collaborative Measures, Discipline -wise Research Output, highly reference papers, most influential authors, preferred sources and growth, most cited countries, highly cited papers and prolific keywords. This study shows that most scientists are preferred to publish research papers in collaboration and the ‘RSC Advances’ is the most preferred journal for publication.
