Polymer journals are very plentiful and most of them are relatively broad in coverage. Examples - Polymer the international journal for the science and technology of polymers). Progress in Polymer Science and New Polymeric Materials. To repeat a statement made in Chapter 2 As late as I960, only four journals were devoted exclusively to polymers - two in English, one in German and one in Russian. Now, however, the field is saturated a survey in 1994 came up with 57 journal titles devoted to polymers that could be found in the Science Citation Index, and this does not include minor journals that were not cited. ... 

In spite of the labels, all four of these disciplines are closely interrelated via cross-citations. Factor analysis of cross-citations shows, for example, that the loading factor of applied physics is 0.83 in the materials science dimension and only 0.25 in the physics dimension—which is formed by more basic research subjects such as astronomy, nuclear physics, or fluids and plasmas. 

The journal literature is the most important vehicle for scholarly communication for the discipline of materials science. Eor the selection of the journals listed below, ISFs Journal Citation Reports... 

Chunfeng Hu gained his Ph.D degree in Institute of Metal Research of Chinese Academy of Sciences in China. He has worked in National Institute of Materials Science (NIMS) as a research fellow in Japan. He has published more than 50 scientific papers, applied 30 patents of advanced materials. He has an h-index of 11 and 400 citations. 

Yoshio Sakka is a Managing Director of Materials Processing Unit at National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), and Professor of the University of Tsukuba. He received his B.E. in 1978, M.E in 1980, and Ph. D. in 1983 from Kyushu University. After receiving his Ph.D, he joined the National Research Institute for Metals (present NIMS). During 1991-92, he stayed a year in University of Washington. He is the author or coauthor of 14 books, above 450 original referee s papers, above 60 review papers, and above 50 patents (including application). By the above establishment, he received many awards, such as Fulrath award from American Ceramic Society (May, 2000), Academic achievement from Japanese Ceramic Society (May, 2005), Chinese Ceramic Society Award (Oct., 2005), Academy member of World Academy of Ceramics (July, 2009), Richard Brook Award from European Ceramic Society (June, 2011), etc. He has an h-index of 32 and 4600 citations. 

Wolfgang Knoll has been a managing director of ATT since 2008. He holds a professor position in the Department of Nanobiotechnology at the University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences (BOKU). In addition, he is Visiting Principal Scientist at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE), Singapore, and Adjunct Professor at Hanyang University, Korea. Knoll s research interests embrace materials sciences. He has authored more than 700 papere in peer review scientific journals that have received more than 15 000 citations. 

In contrast, a real challenge is the analysis of scattering images from anisotropic materials, and in this subarea many scientists surrender and resort to the interpretation of peak positions and peak widths in raw data (cf. citation of P. Debye on p. 1). So after having advanced by learning how to analyze curves, in the field of anisotropic materials we are now in a similar situation as science has been in 1931 in respect to isotropic data. 

By superscript numbers in Accounts of Chemical Research, Analytical Chemistry (except review issues), Chemical Reviews, Chemistry of Materials, Energy 8 Fuels, Inorganic Chemistry, the Journal of the American Chemical Society, the Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences, the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, the Journal of Natural Products, The Journal of Organic Chemistry, the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data, The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, Langmuir, Macromolecules, Organic Process Research c l Development, and Organometallics. The superscript numbers appear outside the punctuation if the citation applies to a whole sentence or clause. 

Likewise, chemical coupling to form ohgomers and polymers of pyrrole, thiophene and many other heterocycles was begun in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries (see citations in [30]). The resulting materials were poorly characterized, partly because of the mdimentary analytical techniques of the day, and partly because of their insolubility. In particular, it was rarely clear whether the products were branched or linear. Nevertheless, by the 60s [30], it became routine to measure the electrical conductivity of the product. The science learned was marginally useful, but a catalog of monomers was generated for future use.
