What Are the Challenges and Limitations of Using ChemRxiv for Nanotechnology?
One of the challenges is the lack of formal peer review, which means that the findings on ChemRxiv should be interpreted with caution. Researchers and practitioners in nanotechnology need to critically evaluate the credibility and reproducibility of the preprints. Additionally, there is a risk of intellectual property issues, as sharing data publicly before securing patents can lead to potential conflicts.
