Materials | Five New Sections Established
In order to specifically develop different research areas and attract more high-quality papers, we are pleased to announce the addition of the following five new Sections to Materials, which are intended to cover all of the disciplines of the field of materials science:
- “Advanced and Functional Ceramics and Glasses” (Section Editor-in-Chief: Dr. Francesco Baino);
- “Metals and Alloys” (Section Editor-in-Chief: Prof. Dr. Yong-Cheng Lin);
- “Soft Matter” (Section Editor-in-Chief: Prof. Dr. Jens-Uwe Sommer);
- “Polymeric Materials” (Section Editors-in-Chief: Prof. Dr. Shouke Yan and Prof. Dr. Xu-Ming Xie);
- “Quantum Materials” (Section Editor-in-Chief: Prof. Dr. Heesun Yang).
