Abstract

The study deals with the Scientometric study on the publication of “Green Chemistry”. The records are collected from Web of Science Databases for the period of 1991-2014. A total of 11503 publications were identified in Web of Science database. The study reveals that, most of the researchers preferred to publish their research results in journals; as such 77.8% of articles were published in journals. More numbers of articles were published in the year 2014. The authorship trend shows that, out of total 11503 publications published, 88.86% of the publication published under the joint author. Further this study also identified to analyses coverage growth rates, source wise, collaborative coefficient, co-authorship index and Geographical distribution of the literature and citation analysis is also noted
