《材料》（ISSN1996-1944）是一本開放獲取的相關科學研究和技術發展雜志。它發表評論、定期研究論文（文章）和簡短的交流。我們的目標是鼓勵科學家盡可能詳細地公布他們的實驗和理論結果。因此，論文長度沒有限制。必須提供完整的實驗細節，以便重現結果。材料為發表論文提供了一個論壇，可以深入了解各種材料的結構、性能或功能之間的關系。將考慮化學合成、化學結構和機械、化學、電子、磁性和光學特性以及各種應用。主題涵蓋材料類別包括陶瓷、玻璃、聚合物（塑料）、半導體、磁性材料、醫用植入材料和生物材料、二氧化硅和碳材料、金屬和金屬合金。各種功能材料，包括牙科材料。復合材料、涂層和薄膜、顏料。離子晶體等材料的分類；共價晶體；金屬；金屬間化合物。材料科學或材料工程。還將考慮納米科學和納米技術。表征技術，如電子顯微鏡、X射線衍射、量熱法、核顯微鏡（HEFIB）、盧瑟福背散射、中子衍射等?；A研究：凝聚態物理和材料物理。連續介質力學和統計學。材料力學。摩擦學（摩擦、潤滑和磨損）。固體物理學。

Materials (ISSN 1996-1944) is an open access journal of related scientific research and technology development. It publishes reviews, regular research papers (articles) and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.Materials provides a forum for publishing papers which advance the in-depth understanding of the relationship between the structure, the properties or the functions of all kinds of materials. Chemical syntheses, chemical structures and mechanical, chemical, electronic, magnetic and optical properties and various applications will be considered.Topics CoveredClass of materials include ceramics, glasses, polymers (plastics), semiconductors, magnetic materials, medical implant materials and biological materials, silica and carbon materials, metals and metallic alloys. All kinds of functional materials including material for dentistry. Composites, coatings and films, pigments. Classes of materials such as ionic crystals; covalent crystals; metals; intermetallics.Materials science or materials engineering. Nanoscience and nanotechnology will be considered also.Characterization techniques such as electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, calorimetry, nuclear microscopy (HEFIB), Rutherford backscattering, neutron diffraction, etc.Fundamental research: Condensed matter physics and materials physics. Continuum mechanics and statistics. Mechanics of materials. Tribology (friction, lubrication and wear). Solid-state physics.
