Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering
Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering is published by the International Association of Physical Chemists in Zagreb, appears open access without a submission fee, and holds a 2025 Journal Impact Factor of 2.4.《Journal of Electrochemical Science and Engineering》由总部在萨格勒布的国际物理化学家协会出版，开放获取且不收发表费，2025 年影响因子 2.4。
Volume 1 is dated 2011 and volume 16 is the 2026 volume, which puts the title in its sixteenth year of continuous publication.第 1 卷署 2011 年，第 16 卷对应 2026 年，该刊已连续出版十六年。
Scope
Nine subject areas are listed on the scope page, and the first of them is electrochemical materials science, which covers electrodes and the surfaces built on them.范围页列出九个主题，第一个是电化学材料科学，电极以及电极上做出来的表面都在里面。
Energy conversion and storage comes second, so batteries, supercapacitors and fuel cell components are read as electrochemical problems before they are read as device problems.能量转换与储存排第二，电池、超级电容器与燃料电池部件先当电化学问题看，再当器件问题看。
Electrochemical catalysis forms a third strand, and papers on electrocatalysts for oxygen or hydrogen reactions arrive under this heading.电化学催化是第三条线，氧反应或氢反应的电催化剂论文都归在这一项下。
Molecular electrochemistry and electrochemical synthesis are treated together, which suits work that builds a molecule at an electrode rather than measuring one already made.分子电化学与电化学合成放在一起，适合在电极上造分子的工作，而不是只测现成的分子。
Process engineering appears as its own heading, including reactor design and scale-up questions that sit behind an industrial electrochemical route.过程工程单列一项，工业电化学路线背后的反应器设计与放大问题都在其中。
Corrosion and its prevention are named explicitly, and coatings, inhibitors and monitoring methods all fall under that heading.腐蚀与防护被明确点名，涂层、缓蚀剂与监测方法都落在这个标题下。
Analytical electrochemistry shares a heading with bioelectrochemistry, which is why sensor papers on drugs or biomolecules sit beside enzyme electrode studies.分析电化学与生物电化学共用一个标题，药物或生物分子的传感器论文因此与酶电极研究相邻。
Environmental electrochemistry covers treatment of water and waste streams, including electrocoagulation and the electrochemical destruction of dyes.环境电化学处理水与废液，电絮凝与染料电化学降解都在其中。
Physical electrochemistry closes the list, and it is where mechanism and double-layer studies find their place even when no application is proposed.物理电化学收尾，机理与双电层研究即便不提应用也能在这里找到位置。
Six contribution types are accepted, from original research papers through reviews and short communications to letters to the editor and book reviews.接受六种稿件类型，从原创研究论文到综述、短通讯，再到致编辑的信与书评。
Recent titles show the analytical side strongly, with voltammetric determination of droxidopa, cysteamine and metronidazole on modified carbon paste and screen-printed electrodes.近期题名显示分析方向最强，屈昔多巴、半胱胺与甲硝唑的伏安测定都在改性碳糊电极与丝网印刷电极上做。
Materials work for energy storage appears as well, including spinel lithium manganese oxide cathodes improved by copper surface decoration and iron cobalt oxide grown on stainless steel mesh.储能材料同样出现，铜表面修饰改善的尖晶石锰酸锂正极与长在不锈钢网上的铁钴氧化物都是例子。
Reviews are within the brief, and one such paper surveys screen-printed carbon electrodes from processing and interface reconstruction through to sustainability.综述也在范围内，有一篇把丝网印刷碳电极从加工、界面重构一直综述到可持续性。
The journal works fast by design, and the editors state that accepted papers go online immediately rather than waiting for the issue to be closed.这本刊有意做快，编辑部说明录用后立即上线，不等整期凑齐。
History
The association launched the journal in 2011, and the volume count has run continuously since then, so volume 8 fell in 2018 and volume 16 in 2026.协会 2011 年创办该刊，卷号此后没有断过，第 8 卷落在 2018 年，第 16 卷落在 2026 年。
Publication is quarterly in the terms the journal itself uses, one volume and four issues a year, with the volume number tied to the calendar year.按刊物自己的说法是季刊，一年一卷四期，卷号与自然年对应。
The recorded issue numbers tell a slightly different story, since volumes 9 to 11 carried four issues each while volumes 12 to 15 carried six.登记下来的期号说得略有不同，第 9 至第 11 卷各四期，第 12 至第 15 卷变成六期。
Volume 11 for 2021 holds just five papers, a thin year that reads as a disruption rather than as a change of policy, since the next volume returned to normal size.2021 年第 11 卷只有 5 篇，这个偏薄的年份更像一次中断，而不是政策改变，下一卷就恢复了正常规模。
Volume 12 carried 24 papers, volume 13 carried 29 and volume 14 carried 20, and then volume 15 jumped to 57 and volume 16 had 74 by late October.第 12 卷 24 篇，第 13 卷 29 篇，第 14 卷 20 篇，随后第 15 卷跳到 57 篇，第 16 卷到十月末已有 74 篇。
The 2026 volume is numbered 16 while some 2026 records carry a volume 1 label, an artefact of special issue deposition rather than a second series.2026 年的正卷是第 16 卷，同时也有少量 2026 年的记录标着第 1 卷，那是特刊提交时的标记问题，不是另起了一套卷次。
No article processing charge is levied, and the journal says so in a single sentence on its home page, which keeps the cost side out of an author's decision.刊物不收文章处理费，首页用一句话写明，费用因此不进入作者的决定。
Everything is published under a CC BY 4.0 licence, so text and figures can be reused with attribution and without a separate permission request.全部内容按 CC BY 4.0 许可发表，正文与图可以在署名前提下再用，不必另求许可。
The Journal Impact Factor was 2.9 for 2023, 2.6 for 2024 and 2.4 for 2025, and the five-year figure is 2.1, the lowest of the recent measures.影响因子 2023 年是 2.9，2024 年 2.6，2025 年 2.4，五年影响因子 2.1，是近期几个数字里最低的。
Electrochemistry is the single category in the emerging sources edition, where the journal sits in the third quartile at 33 of 44 titles and on the 26.1st percentile.在新兴来源引文索引版里它只属电化学一个类目，列第三区，44 种刊中排 33，百分位 26.1。
The 2025 release records 794 citations, with 69 articles giving 75 citable items for the year, a Journal Citation Indicator of 0.37 and a cited half-life of 3.3 years.2025 年版记下总被引 794 次，69 篇文章给出 75 篇可引条目，期刊引文指标 0.37，被引半衰期 3.3 年。
Gold open access covers 97.91 per cent of the papers, the residue being items such as editorials that carry no article charge in the first place.金色开放获取覆盖 97.91% 的论文，剩下那一小部分是社论一类本来就不收费的条目。
Chemical Abstracts, the directory of open access scholarly resources and the directory of open access journals all list the title, as does the emerging sources edition of the citation index.化学文摘、开放获取学术资源目录与开放获取期刊目录都收录该刊，引文索引的新兴来源版也在列。
Special issues are used for conferences and for memorial collections, and a 2026 number was edited for the tenth regional symposium on electrochemistry of South-East Europe.特刊用于会议与纪念文集，2026 年有一期就是为东南欧电化学区域研讨会第十届会议编的。
The publisher sits at S. Alića 4 in Zagreb, and the association keeps its own installation of the open journal system rather than renting a platform from a large publisher.出版方在萨格勒布 S. Alića 4 号，协会自建开放期刊系统，不向大型出版社租用平台。
Editors
Višnja Horvat-Radošević of the Ruđer Bošković Institute in Zagreb is Editor-in-Chief, and the editorial team page names her alone in that role.萨格勒布鲁杰尔·博什科维奇研究所的 Višnja Horvat-Radošević 任主编，编辑团队页上只有她一人担任这一职务。
Twenty-four names make up the editorial board, and the spread runs from Milan and Patras through Tehran, Prague and Stockholm to Calgary and Tamil Nadu.编委会由二十四位成员组成，分布从米兰与帕特雷，经德黑兰、布拉格与斯德哥尔摩，一直到卡尔加里与泰米尔纳德。

Every manuscript goes to at least two independent expert reviewers, and the editors then take the accept or reject decision themselves.每篇稿件至少送两位独立专家评审，录用与否由编辑自己决定。
Review is meant to close within two weeks, a target the journal states as a commitment to authors rather than as a measured average.评审要在两周内走完，刊物把这写成对作者的承诺，而不是统计出来的平均值。
Papers that arrive below the required standard of English are rejected at the editorial stage, and the instructions say so without softening the point.英文达不到要求的稿件在编辑环节就退，作者须知把这一条写得很直白。
