“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.

Turnaround figures are indicative, not a guarantee: DOAJ values are self-reported by the journal (average weeks, submission to publication); library estimates are medians of the received/accepted dates printed in papers we hold.

Frequently asked

Is Advanced Functional Materials a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag Advanced Functional Materials. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.

Is Advanced Functional Materials indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, Advanced Functional Materials appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of Advanced Functional Materials?

Papers in Advanced Functional Materials are cited about 14.0 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 475. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is Advanced Functional Materials (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

Scimago places Advanced Functional Materials in Q1 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Advanced Functional Materials is cited about 14.0 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 475. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Advanced Functional Materials?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Advanced Functional Materials. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Is Advanced Functional Materials open access?

We hold no reliable open-access classification for Advanced Functional Materials. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.

How long does Advanced Functional Materials take to publish a paper?

Submission to acceptance for Advanced Functional Materials takes about 97 days (median) — Estimated from our library (n=20 papers). Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Advanced Functional Materials.
