This Journal is the 342nd out of 1,481 Materials Science journals. This Journal is the 589th out of 3,258 Chemistry journals. This means the journal is among the top 19% in the discipline of Chemistry. This Journal is the 785th out of 5,488 Applied Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 15% in the science branch of Applied Sciences. This Journal is the 1687th out of 12,155 Physical Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 14% in the science branch of Physical Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
