Materials Science

Open access optionsWe publish high-impact journals across the whole of materials science, in biomaterials and polymers, in ceramics and composites, in alloys and compounds, in metals and in new materials for energy applications. We publish around 16,500 articles per year across our entire list and work globally with some of the best minds in the field to lead our journals. To support our programme, we also run successful conferences such as Frontiers in Polymer Science, Hybrid Materials, Nano Today, and NuMat: Nuclear Materials, to name a few. And in 2012, we will roll out a number of new applications across mobile platforms, designed to help authors get their article published as rapidly as possible.
