International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials

ISSN: 0263-4368
5 Year impact factor: 4.2
Impact factor: 4.2

The International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials (IJRMHM) publishes original research articles concerned with all aspects of refractory metals and hard materials. Refractory metals are defined as metals with melting points higher than 1800 °C. These are tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, tantalum, niobium, hafnium, and rhenium, as well as many compounds and alloys based thereupon. Hard materials that are included in the scope of this journal are defined as materials with hardness values higher than 1000 kg/mm2, primarily intended for applications as manufacturing tools or wear resistant components in mechanical systems. Thus they encompass carbides, nitrides and borides of metals, and related compounds. A special focus of this journal is put on the family of hardmetals, which is also known as cemented tungsten carbide, and cermets which are based on titanium carbide and carbonitrides with or without a metal binder. Ceramics and superhard materials including diamond and cubic boron nitride may also be accepted provided the subject material is presented as hard materials as defined above.The journal seeks contributions that investigate novel alloy design concepts; studies of the relationships between chemical composition, microstructure, and properties; novel methods of characterization and testing, novel methods of synthesis and processing, especially those that result in improved or novel microstructures, leading in turn to improved properties and novel applications. Articles focus on methods and processes that reduce material and energy consumption, hence the cost of these materials will also be considered.The process technologies may include but are not limited to powder synthesis and production technologies (chemical methods, physical methods such as mechanical ball milling); powder compaction and shaping technologies including die compaction, powder injection molding, and 3D printing; and sintering and consolidation processes such as vacuum sintering, hot isostatic pressing, field assisted sintering, and other advanced hot consolidation techniques. However, manuscripts that focus on processes without a clear explanation on how the process can lead to improved microstructure and properties, or reduction of energy consumption and costs are likely discouraged.This journal also publishes articles dealing with the deposition process and the microstructure and the measurement of selected properties of coatings, provided the coating consists of a material from the groups defined above, and is applied on the surface of a refractory metal or hard material. For eligibility of such articles the material science aspect of the coatings and if applicable their interrelationship with the properties of the coatings is of prime importance. Papers lacking this focus are usually referred to other journals dedicated to surface coating or machining.IJRMHM aims to bridge the gap between pure research and the more practical aspects of production and properties. In that IJMHM will continue to provide a medium linking together material scientists, engineers, designers and manufacturers working in this field.

Science and Technology of Advanced Materials

ISSN: 1468-6996

As of 2008 no longer published by Elsevier, please contact the National Institute of Materials Science in JapanAIMS AND SCOPEBackground: To date, there are many Journals dealing with materials and their functions. For most of them, however, the core is generally derived from the separate viewpoints of physics, chemistry, and electronics, not necessarily from that of multifaceted materials themselves.It has been recognized that the key issues in the development of the advanced materials field in the future, is how to realize the fruits of the advances in Materials Science and Engineering research, as evidenced by the block of knowledge stored in the Materials' archives for the last 30 years.In order to attain the purpose, each researcher is encouraged to develop his/her specialist field by gaining knowledge from all the fields of multifaceted materials, functions, and processing.This point of view is in direct contrast to the concepts expressed through the established, traditional journals.Purpose and scope: Science and Technology of Advanced Materials offers an international forum presenting refereed original contributions at the forefront of materials science research, and occasionally includes reviews of articles in the rapidly growing fields of materials research, such as nano-, bio- and ecomaterials. We also publishes special issues featuring on-going research projects and other materials research activity.The journal publishes research involving all aspects of materials science, including theoretical analysis, synthesis and processing, phase and structure analyses, characterization, properties, engineering and applications. Emphasis is placed on the interdisciplinary nature of materials science and particularly close attention is paid to the latest trends in materials research.The multi-faceted nature of materials science is more prominent in the rapidly-growing nanotechnology-related fields, where researchers are confronted by the necessity not only to develop their specialty within the specific scientific field, but also to gain knowledge from various other fields of materials science. The interdisciplinary nature of Science and Technology of Advanced Materials will help readers to understand various aspects of materials research outside their own core expertise.
