journal covers eighteen comprehensive topics: biomaterials,
energy materials, advanced composites, structure analysis
and characterization, porous materials, manufacturing
processes and systems, advanced nanomaterials, smart
materials, thin films, catalytic materials and carbon
materials, materials chemistry, materials physics, optics
and photonics, corrosion and materials degradation,
construction and building materials, materials simulation
and design, electronic materials, general. The distinguished
and dedicated editorial board and our strict peer-review
process ensure the highest degree of scientific rigor and
review of all published articles. Materials provides a

Aims and Scope
Materials provides a forum for publishing papers that
advance in-depth understandings of the relationships
between the structures, properties, applications or
functions of all classes of materials. We aim to encourage
various scientific communities to publish their original
experimental and theoretical research, as well as their
reviews.
The scope of Materials includes:
All classes of materials, including ceramics, glasses,
polymers (plastics), semiconductors, magnetic
materials, medical implant materials and biological
materials, silica and carbon materials, and metals and
metallic alloys
Functional materials
Characterization techniques, such as electron
Fundamental research: condensed matter and
materials physics and the mechanics of materials
Various topics related to materials science or materials
engineering, nanomaterials, and nanotechnology
