Materials Advances

Published fortnightly, the journal accepts experimental or theoretical studies that report new understanding, applications, properties and synthesis of materials, building on and complementing the materials content already published across the Royal Society of Chemistry journal portfolio. Submissions are initially assessed and taken through peer review by our high profile associate editors, all of whom also look after submissions to Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C. A single-anonymised peer review model is used and a minimum of two reviewer reports are required. Our editors are internationally recognised in their respective areas, and taking responsibility for these journals will ensure a common overview and consistent application of expertise – streamlining the assessment process for authors and reviewers.
