Composite material, Polymer, Polymer chemistry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Ultimate tensile strength are the subjects of interest in the journal. Research on Composite material addressed in it frequently intersections with the field of Thermogravimetric analysis. In addition to Thermogravimetric analysis research, it aims to explore topics under Differential scanning calorimetry and Thermal stability.
The Polymer chemistry works featured in it incorporate elements from Copolymer, Polymerization, Radical polymerization and Catalysis. In Iranian Polymer Journal, Molar mass distribution and Monomer are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Polymerization research. Topics in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Scanning electron microscope and Nuclear chemistry.
Topics in Nuclear chemistry were tackled in line with various other fields like Adsorption and Aqueous solution. Some problems in Ultimate tensile strength that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Flexural strength, Dynamic mechanical analysis, Curing (chemistry) and Absorption of water. Iranian Polymer Journal addresses concerns in Nanocomposite which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Nanoparticle and Carbon nanotube.
The most cited publications mostly deal with topics like Composite material, Ultimate tensile strength, Polymer, Polymer chemistry and Nanocomposite. The Composite material research tackled in the most cited publications is interrelated with Thermogravimetric analysis which concerns subjects like Thermal stability and Differential scanning calorimetry. The journal papers focus on Polymer chemistry but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Langmuir adsorption model, Adsorption, Polymerization, Nuclear chemistry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
The scientific interests tackled in Iranian Polymer Journal are Composite material, Polymer, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Ultimate tensile strength and Nanocomposite. Polymer research in the journal involves the investigation of Polyethylene studies, all of which are linked to disciplines such as Phase (matter). The journal focuses on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Chitosan, Acrylamide, Nuclear chemistry, Thermogravimetric analysis and Vinyl alcohol.
The study of Thermal stability and how it intertwines with concepts under Crystallinity were explored in the presented Thermogravimetric analysis research. Iranian Polymer Journal focuses on Ultimate tensile strength but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Young's modulus, Flexural strength, Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Fiber. The journal deals with Nanocomposite in conjunction with other fields like
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Iranian Polymer Journal (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Iranian Polymer Journal (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 16.26% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.39% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 6.80% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 10.68% of all publications and 62.14% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)For those studying Materials Science in the USA, exploring related online degrees and career pathways can open diverse opportunities. Many professionals complement their technical expertise with specialized certificate programs. For example, 6 month certificate programs that pay well provide a quick route to gaining marketable skills alongside a traditional degree.
Expanding into areas like instructional design can also be valuable. The best online instructional design master's programs offer flexible learning for those interested in educational technology, a field increasingly important for training within scientific industries.
Supporting diverse learners, including those transitioning from military service, are programs such as veteran friendly online photography degree options. These showcase the importance of accessible online education across different fields and populations.
Lastly, for introverted professionals who often excel in research-focused roles, exploring the careers for introverts can help align personal strengths with fulfilling career choices within and beyond Materials Science.
