The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Composite material, Microstructure, Chemical engineering, Alloy and Metallurgy. The Composite material research presented places emphasis on topics like Composite number, Ultimate tensile strength, Scanning electron microscope, Deformation (engineering) and Porosity. The study on Scanning electron microscope presented in it intersects with the topics under Transmission electron microscopy.
The journal focuses on Microstructure but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Phase (matter) and Ceramic. While it focused on Chemical engineering, it was also able to explore topics like Nanotechnology, Oxide, Electrochemistry and Catalysis. Studies on Oxide discussed in the journal link to the field of Graphene.
It investigates Catalysis research which frequently intersects with Inorganic chemistry. Most of the works presented in Progress in Natural Science: Materials International deals with Alloy but it intersects with the subject of Grain boundary. In it, Coating and Analytical chemistry are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Metallurgy research.
The main points discussed in the published papers deal with Nanotechnology, Composite material, Metallurgy, Microstructure and Chemical engineering. While work presented in the published articles provide substantial information on Nanotechnology, it also covers topics in Supercapacitor and Energy storage. The study of Microstructure in the most cited articles encompasses disciplines such as Ultimate tensile strength, as well as fields such as Extrusion, all of which overlap with one another.
The journal explores disciplines such as Composite material, Microstructure, Alloy, Chemical engineering and Phase (matter). The research on Microstructure tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Ceramic, Grain size, Scanning electron microscope and Deformation (engineering). Alloy studies covered in Progress in Natural Science: Materials International falls within the purview of Metallurgy.
Chemical engineering research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Amorphous solid, Composite number, Hydrogen and Lithium. Topics in Phase (matter) explored in the journal were investigated in conjunction with research in Porosity, Intermetallic, Thermodynamics and Analytical chemistry. In addition to Nanoparticle research, the journal aims to explore topics under Hydrogen storage and Coating.
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 Progress in Natural Science: Materials International (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 Progress in Natural Science: Materials International (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, 5.21% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 38.46% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.09% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 24.18% of all publications and 25.27% 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.

(2020)For those interested in Materials Science, exploring related online degrees can open doors to diverse career pathways. Competency based degrees offer a flexible approach, allowing students to progress by demonstrating skills rather than time spent in class. This can be ideal for professionals seeking to balance work and study.
For individuals with a creative edge, online MFA programs provide advanced training that complements technical expertise, merging scientific innovation with design thinking. On the other hand, 6-month certificate programs that pay well present a fast-track option for acquiring specialized skills, helping graduates enter the workforce quickly with practical knowledge.
Additionally, an instructional design masters degree online equips learners with the expertise to develop educational materials and training programs, a growing field crucial for industry training and academic research dissemination.
Exploring these options can help Materials Science students tailor their education and careers to meet evolving industry demands and personal goals.
