Still flagship, wiley is transferred to domestic (most of the domestic cooperative journals are in) some choose at will, and there are also some second-zone journals of their own

The editor's processing speed is very fast. I received the review comments within a month. The questions raised by the reviewers are very professional and detailed. They gave two minor revisions and the revised manuscript was accepted two weeks later.

The official website of the journal states that there will be no fees before the end of 2022, but it is unclear whether this refers to no fees before submitting a manuscript or before accepting it.

Four reviewers, one accepts, two minor revisions, and one major revision. The editing process and review speeds are quite fast, but the online time is slightly longer, about 3 weeks. Overall, the quality is considered good for a new publication, and no page fees will be charged until the end of 2022.

One of the Mat series, judging from the editing and editorial team, Ecomat has the best internationalization level. It is hoped that Ecomat can attract more foreign submissions to expand its influence. The submission process takes about two months for online publication.

Hello, do you charge a layout fee for this magazine?

As one of the four new publications in the Mat series, the current article quality is probably at a mid-level, with Infomat being the best. The latest timely Impact Factor is 10.5. It is certain that the first Impact Factor to exceed 10 will be achieved in June this year. As a flagship journal in the Wiley Energy and Environment category, domestic journals will continue to improve in the future.

On the 24th, it was submitted and the next day the editor sent it back, requesting a similarity rate of less than 20%.

On the 10th, after reducing the similarity, it was resubmitted.

On the 11th, it is under review.

On the 2nd, minor revisions were requested. Both reviewers gave positive feedback and only minor changes were needed. The editor gave 10 days for revisions.

On the 11th, the revised version was submitted.

On the 12th, it was accepted.

The whole process from submission to acceptance took a total of 30 days, which is very efficient. I am very happy that my first work during my master's period was accepted. I was rejected by journals such as AM, so I suggest considering submitting to Small Structures. In the end, I chose EcoMat and everything went smoothly. It took almost a year from starting to write my first SCI paper during my graduate studies to getting it accepted. Although I was rejected multiple times and became numb to it, I am still quite satisfied with the final outcome. I hope all of you can continuously progress in your research journey, always filled with passion and confidence. Let's encourage each other.
