The Journal of Minerals and Materials Characterization and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed journal for the publication of original research in the fields of characterization of the minerals, metals and materials and its applications to the processing of them. Characterization has become the foundation fo…

In 1971, Firrao and Spretnak performed a large experimental campaign to assess the elasticplastic stress concentration factor at fracture as a function of the elastic stress concentration factor and of the tempering temperature, by using 25.4 mm wide, 1.14 mm…

L-Cystine dihydrochloride, a semiorganic nonlinear optical material, was synthesized and a single crystal was grown from aqueous solution. Low temperature (173 K) crystal structure measurement was carried out, and it reveals that the crystal belongs to noncen…

Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
