Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This paper examines the optimal combination of blockchain adoption in recycling used products and sales format selection of the online platform to achieve triple sustainability of economy, environment and society. We focus on a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) consisting of a manufacturer and an online platform. In the forward chain, the manufacturer sells products through the online platform who adopts reselling or agency selling sales format. In the backward chain, under extended producer responsibility, the manufacturer collects used products and can take advantage of the transparency, trust, and traceability features of blockchain technology, to increase the real recycling rate of used products and gain consumer trust. By constructing stylized differential game model, we clarify the condition of blockchain adoption and discuss the impact of blockchain on platform sales format selection and triple performance of the CLSC. The results show that the improvement in transparency and trust induced by blockchain will increase the brand goodwill and have positive effect on demand. Under blockchain-enabled recycling, the online platform and the manufacturer will reach a stable cooperation on platform reselling when the commission rate is extremely low, and agency selling when the commission rate is relatively high. However, the relationship of cooperation will break down when the commission rate is extremely high or relatively low. Furthermore, it is illustrated that the lower the real recycling rate, the better the effect of blockchain in enabling the triple sustainability of economy, environment, and society.
