Introduction

Chemistry encompasses the study of substances, their properties, transformations, structures, and interactions. Research within the discipline contributes to areas including materials, catalysis, chemical synthesis, analytical methods, energy, environmental science, and related interdisciplinary fields. Within this broad context, researcher profiles provide a useful means of documenting scholarly activity and connecting publications with persistent researcher identifiers. ORCID is designed to distinguish researchers and associate their contributions with a persistent identifier. [2]

Research Profile

Xing Kang’s supplied profile identifies East China University of Science and Technology as the institutional affiliation and Chemistry as the principal subject area. The record contains 17 documents. These details provide a concise bibliographic representation of the researcher’s documented scholarly activity. Scopus is a major bibliographic database used to index research literature and associate publications with author profiles. [1]

Research Contributions

The available information establishes a research connection with Chemistry but does not provide sufficient publication-level information to attribute specific discoveries, methods, materials, or experimental findings to Xing Kang. Accordingly, the recognition profile focuses on the documented research record rather than making unsupported claims about individual scientific outcomes. Detailed assessment of contributions may consider verified publications, methodological originality, research significance, collaboration, and reproducibility where appropriate.

Publications

The supplied record indicates 17 scholarly documents associated with the researcher. Individual publication titles, publication years, citation counts, and DOI identifiers were not provided in the source information for this page.
