Zairyo-to-kankyo facilitates discussions on Metallurgy, Corrosion, Composite material, Inorganic chemistry and Carbon steel. Zairyo-to-kankyo explores research in Metallurgy and the adjacent study of Corrosion behavior. Most of the Corrosion studies addressed also intersect with Copper.
The journal papers primarily tackle Metallurgy, Corrosion, Atmospheric corrosion, Rust and Weathering steel. While work presented in the journal papers provide substantial information on Metallurgy, it also covers topics in Atmosphere and Cathodic protection. The most cited publications about Carbon steel are all disciplines of Corrosion that connect with topics in Evaluation methods.
The journal tackles a plethora of topics, such as Metallurgy, Corrosion, Corrosion behavior, Pitting corrosion and Scientific method. The main emphasis of the journal is the research on Metallurgy, emphasizing the topic of Oxide. The research on Corrosion featured in it combines topics in other fields like Acoustic emission, Process engineering and Current (fluid).
Topics in Corrosion behavior were tackled in line with various other fields like In situ, Carbon steel, Aluminium, Proton exchange membrane fuel cell and Sulfate. It facilitates discussions on Pitting corrosion that incorporate concepts from other fields like Microorganism, Seawater, Coupon and Welding. In it, Artificial seawater, Crevice corrosion, Metal dissolution, Aqueous solution and Chloride are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Scientific method research.
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 Zairyo-to-kankyo (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 Zairyo-to-kankyo (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, 35.29% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 36.36% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 45.45% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 9.09% of all publications and 9.09% 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)Studying Materials Science in the USA opens many doors, but supplementing your knowledge with related online programs can greatly enhance your career prospects. For example, pursuing online masters in communications programs can help you develop strong technical communication skills essential for collaborating across disciplines and presenting complex findings effectively.
Time is often a crucial factor for working professionals. Some institutions offer accelerated options, such as a master degree in 6 months, enabling you to gain advanced expertise quickly and return to the workforce with enhanced qualifications.
In addition to traditional degrees, specialized certifications remain a valuable way to boost your career in high-demand sectors. Exploring high paying certificate jobs related to materials testing, quality assurance, or manufacturing technology can provide targeted skills and increase your earning potential.
Moreover, creative fields intersect with science in unexpected ways. For instance, an online photography degree could complement your scientific career by equipping you with the ability to document experiments and technical processes attractively for presentations or marketing.
Exploring these diverse educational pathways can help you tailor your career to your interests and goals within the vast field of Materials Science.
