I have submitted to Mater Lett several times, and each time I specified the specific editor to process in the cover letter, but actually we didn’t need to specify it each time. So does it for this time. It was assigned to the editor-in-chief, but the editor-in-chief’s processing speed was quite slow. 2020.08.19 Submitted; 2020.08.21 With Editor; 2020.08.22 Under Review; 2020.10.01 Under Editor Evaluation; 2020.10.27 Under Editor Evaluation; 2020.11.07 Moderate revise (Two reviewers, 1 rejected it and 1 required a revision. The article was processed by the editor-in-chief A.R. Boccaccini. He did not reject it and let us revise it); 2020.11.10 Revision submitted; 2020.11.11 With Editor; 2020.11.14 Under Review; 2020.11.16 Required Review Completed; 2020.11.28 Accept.

Note: the reviewers can be very picky about technical wording, the key words included. The reviewers are pretty fast and friendly, though. We are pretty happy with the overall experience.

I wrote a letter and submitted it to Chemical Communications, but I am anxious to publish it and do not want to wait any longer. I have decided to directly modify and submit it to Materials Letter instead.

Do we need to undergo another external audit for the rework? My moderately revised work has been sent back for rework and has been in the "with editor" status for over ten days with no progress. I have also sent an email inquiring about it, but have not received a response.

Only one reviewer, who rejected it directly, and then the editor directly rejected it, without any other reviewers.

(0) Thank | TARS

Did you get rejected after the expert gave their opinion, or did it not even get sent for review? The process of this journal seems strange, first getting one approval and receiving feedback, and then sending it for a second review.

Unfortunately, on the tenth day, rejected and speechless.

(0) Thank | TARS

How did it turn out? I also provided feedback in the first round, but after the revisions, it was sent to other reviewers for another round of evaluation.

(0) Thank | 陶瓷气凝胶

It seems like there is only one review opinion, and after submitting it on the 6th day, it was marked as "Decision in Process." It looks like it's going to be rejected.
