“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.

Frequently asked

Is Korean Journal of Metals and Materials a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag Korean Journal of Metals and 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, which is a positive signal.

Is Korean Journal of Metals and Materials indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

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

What is the impact factor of Korean Journal of Metals and Materials?

Papers in Korean Journal of Metals and Materials are cited about 1.3 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 19. 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 Korean Journal of Metals and Materials (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

Scimago places Korean Journal of Metals and Materials in Q3 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; Korean Journal of Metals and Materials is cited about 1.3 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 19. 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 Korean Journal of Metals and 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 Korean Journal of Metals and Materials. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q3, 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 Korean Journal of Metals and Materials open access?

Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
