《材料化学前沿（英文）》
（Materials Chemistry Frontiers）期刊介绍
Materials Chemistry Frontiers （MCF）由中国化学会、英国皇家化学会、中国科学院化学研究所联合筹办，是 Frontiers 系列期刊的成员，2017年初发行创刊号，同年被Emerging Sources Citation Index 和Scopus收录，2019年被 Science Citation Index Expanded 收录并于今年6月收获第一个影响因子 — 6.788。自创办伊始，该期刊得到学界广泛关注和支持。截止到目前，共收到近3000篇投稿，发表逾千篇文章，全球订阅用户遍布80多个国家和地区，年访问量超百万。为适应期刊的快速发展，自2021年起，MCF出版周期将由月刊缩短到至半月刊，进一步优化文章正式发表和被SCI收录的时间。
该刊主要报道各种新型有机、无机、复合和纳米材料的合成方法与化学特性以及对材料制备技术的改进工作，也发表具有重要意义的材料表征和基础理论方面的工作。

Comments
See more information about these article types
Research articles
All original research work published in Material Chemistry Frontiers will be in one 'Research article' format. Both Communications and Full papers can be published in the same format. Lengthy introductions, excessive data or experimental details and pure conjecture should not be included in the main text.
Authors are encouraged to include a brief experimental section in the main text, to provide adequate details of critical or representative steps.
Additional detailed procedures and characterization data should be included in electronic supplementary information (ESI). Authors are encouraged to make full use of ESI in order to present more concise articles.
Critical reviews
Reviews provide a critical and in-depth discussion of a particularly relevant or interesting topic in material chemistry. They aim to provide the reader with an authoritative, balanced and up-to-date overview, not a comprehensive list of all possible references.
Authors should aim to identify areas in the field where further developments are needed. Critical reviews do not describe any unpublished results.
Reviews are normally invited by the editorial board or the editorial office of Material Chemistry Frontiers. We also welcome suggestions from authors. If you are interested in writing a Review for the journal please contact the editorial office.
All reviews undergo rigorous and full peer review and must meet the high standard of the journal to be accepted for publication.
Chemistry frontiers
Chemistry frontiers are concise, peer-reviewed, forward looking articles published upon invitation from the editorial office. Authors of Chemistry frontiers will be leading scientists in their research fields. Current hot topics of great interest to the community should be discussed, and personal viewpoints looking forward at the future of the respective research fields are encouraged.
Chemistry frontiers can be speculative and controversial in nature. Unpublished results should not be included. The suggested length is fewer than two journal pages.
Comments
Comments and Replies are a medium for the discussion and exchange of scientific opinions between authors and readers concerning material published in Materials Chemistry Frontiers.
For publication, a Comment should present an alternative analysis of and/or new insight into the previously published material. Any Reply should further the discussion presented in the original article and the Comment. Comments and Replies that contain any form of personal attack are not suitable for publication.
Comments that are acceptable for publication will be forwarded to the authors of the work being discussed, and these authors will be given the opportunity to submit a Reply. The Comment and Reply will both be subject to rigorous peer review in consultation with the journal’s Editorial Board where appropriate. The Comment and Reply will be published together.
Journal guidelines
For guidance on preparing your article please visit our Prepare your article and Resources for authors pages, the content of which is relevant to all of our journals. Note that some journals have additional specific guidelines.
Bibliographic references
We encourage the citation of primary research over review articles, where appropriate, in order to give credit to those who first reported a finding. Find out more about our commitments to the principles of San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA).
These should be listed at the end of the manuscript in numerical order as they appear in the manuscript. Article titles of bibliographic references are requested at the time the manuscript is submitted to the journal. Bibliographic details should be cited in the order: authors, title, journal, year, volume, page. For example: M. Zhang, C. Hou, A. Halder, H. Wang, Q. Chi, Graphene papers: smart architecture and specific functionalization for biomimetics, electrocatalytic sensing and energy storage, Mater. Chem. Front., 2017, 1, 37.

Partnership information
Materials Chemistry Frontiers belongs to Frontiers Journal portfolio, an enterprising collaboration between the Chinese Chemical Society and the Royal Society of Chemistry.
The Frontiers project aims to publish a series of high impact, quality chemistry journals that showcase the very best research from China, Asia and the rest of the world to an international audience.
For each journal title, the intention is to collaborate with a leading Chinese institute in the relevant field. For Materials Chemistry Frontiers, this is the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The key benefits
It is wholly society and institute owned.
The journal is truly international, and China-led.
The highest ethical standards are upheld.
