Published 25 June, 2019

We are delighted to announce that Journal of Magnesium and Alloys has received its first Impact Factor. It is 4.523* and ranks the journal in the top quartile of the Metallurgy & Metallurgical Engineering category.

Since its launch in 2013, the journal has provided researchers with an international forum for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies in magnesium science and engineering.

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys covers all aspects of magnesium and alloys and their manufacture, including:

  • Raw materials
  • Alloy casting
  • Extrusion and deformation
  • Corrosion and surface treatment
  • Joining and machining
  • Simulation and modelling
  • Microstructure evolution and mechanical properties
  • New alloy development
  • Magnesium-based composites
  • Bio-materials and energy materials
  • Applications
  • Recycling


Congratulations to the editors and thank you to the authors, readers and reviewers who have contributed to the journal.
