Aims & Scope

- The Journal of Alloys and Compounds is an international peer-reviewed medium for the publication of work on materials comprising compounds as well as alloys.

Its great strength lies in the diversity of disciplines which it encompasses, drawing together results from materials science, physical metallurgy, solid-state chemistry and physics.

The interdisciplinary nature of the journal is evident in many subject areas.

Experimental and theoretical approaches to materials problems require an active interplay between a variety of traditional and novel scientific disciplines. - The journal will not consider topics on liquid alloys, traditional steel, wear, creep, welding and joining, organic materials and polymers, coordination chemistry, ionic liquids, catalysis and biochemistry; it will not consider papers reporting only syntheses without any properties, purely computational papers without sufficient experimental validation, CALPHAD papers without regard to experimental observations.

The submission of papers on technology of materials and processing is not encouraged.

First principle calculations can only be accepted, if the system has already been proven in experiment or if this is required for a dedicated application.

Technical reports will not be accepted. - The work published in the journal should comprise studies on synthesis and structure combined with investigations of chemical and physical properties of alloys and compounds, contributing to the development of areas of current scientific interest. - Papers submitted for publication should contain new experimental or theoretical results and their interpretation.

The Journal of Alloys and Compounds provides a unique international forum where materials scientists, chemists and physicists can present their results both to researchers in their own fields and to others active in related areas.
