English academic periodicals1. National English Journals(1)Journal of Materials Science & TechnologyIntroduction: This is the premier Chinese materials science journal and the first to be published in English. It is sponsored by the Chinese Society for Metals, the Chinese Materials Research Society and the International Centre for Materials Physics (Chinese Academy of Sciences). This express journal publishes short, original papers, letters and brief research notes covering a broad spectrum of materials and technology encompassing: metals (ferrous and nonferrous) inorganic nonmetallic materials , organic polymer materials , composite materials. Throughout the journal there is an emphasis on the frontiers of advanced materials in terms of properties, constituents, preparation and characterization. This journal is designed for quick publication of research results on the cutting edge of materials science and engineering and is the one Chinese journal in this field to monitor regularly.Source Type: Academic JournalIssn: 10050302Publisher: Chinese Society of Metals(2) Chinese Journal of Chemical EngineeringIntroduction: The Chinese Journal of Chemical Engineering (Bimonthly, started in 1982) is the official journal of the Chemical Industry and Engineering Society of China and published by the Chemical Industry Press. The aim of the journal is to develop the international exchange of scientific and technical information in the field of chemical engineering. It publishes original research papers that cover the major advancements and achievements in chemical engineering in China as well as some articles from overseas contributors. The topics of journal include chemical engineering, chemical technology, biochemical engineering, energy and environmental engineering and other relevant fields. Papers are published on the basis of their relevance to theoretical research, practical application or potential uses in the industry as Research Papers, Research Notes, Chemical Engineering Data and Reviews. Prominent domestic and overseas chemical experts and scholars have been invited to form an International Advisory Board and the Editorial Committee. It enjoys recognition among Chinese academia and industry as a reliable source of information of what is going on in chemical engineering research, both domestic and abroad.Source Type: Academic JournalIssn: 18722067Publisher: Science Press2.
