Abstract: In 2017, Department of Chemical Sciences of National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) re-organized the divisions and the new discipline codes were employed to conduct funding and management. The new code B02 corresponds to the field of catalysis and surface/interface chemistry. In this paper, the funding scope of B02 code was introduced briefly first. Then the application and funding of B02 code in 2018, as well as the actions which were taken to optimize the peer review processes were summarized and analyzed. At last, some suggestions on improving the proposals were proposed.
