Jinshu Xuebao/Acta Metallurgica Sinica

Aims & Scope

Acta Metallurgica Sinica is a special journal focusing on metallurgy and metal materials, started in 1956, authorized by Chinese Association of Science and Technology, sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Metals, and undertaken by Institute of Metal Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, published by Science Press.

Professor Lee Xsun, a world-leading scientist in metal materials, acted as the first editor-in-chief of the journal.

The current editor-in-chief is Professor Ye Hengqiang, a member of Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Acta Metallurgica Sinica mainly publishes original research papers and also invited review papers in the field of metallurgy, materials science and engineering.

It is a core journal in China with a long history and high academic impact.

Since the establishment of the journal, Acta Metallurgica Sinica has firmly followed the correct publication guidance, implemented thoroughly all the policies and rules from the party and the government, served to the economy and the modernization of science and technology, and contributed significantly to the advancement of metallurgy and materials industry in China.
