Journal of Wood Chemistry and Technology

Journal of Wood Chemistry and Technology is a peer-reviewed scientific periodical devoted to the chemistry of wood and of other lignocellulosic biomass, published in the United States by Taylor & Francis.《木材化学与技术》是一份经过同行评审的学术期刊，专注木材与其他木质纤维素的化学，由 Taylor & Francis 在美国出版。

Its subject field in the Journal Citation Reports is MATERIALS SCIENCE, PAPER & WOOD, where the 2025 edition places the title in quartile Q2 at rank 8 among 24 journals.它在 Journal Citation Reports 里的类目属于纸与木材方向的材料科学，2025 年版把它排在 Q2 区的第 8 位，同类共 24 刊。

Editorially the journal positions itself between academic chemistry and industrial processing, offering a shared forum for researchers and manufacturers working on wood-based biopolymers and chemicals.编辑定位上刊物站在学术化学与工业加工之间，为木材基生物聚合物与化学品领域的研究者和制造商提供共同论坛。

Latest JCR figures give a 2025 impact factor of 1.9 with a five-year value of 2.0, a Journal Citation Indicator of 0.73 and a cited half-life of 10.6 years.最新 JCR 数据给出 2025 年影响因子 1.9，五年影响因子 2.0，期刊引用指标 0.73，被引半衰期 10.6 年。

Output stays compact at 19 citable items a year, and only 2.38 percent of the articles reach gold open access, so the title remains a subscription journal with a hybrid option.年发文量维持在 19 篇可引用条目左右，金色开放获取文章仅占 2.38%，期刊因此仍是订阅制并保留混合开放通道。

Scope

• Coverage extends to the synthesis and characterization of polymers isolated from wood, where cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are treated as feedstocks rather than as residue.范围延伸到从木材分离出的高分子的合成与结构表征，纤维素，半纤维素与木质素在其中都是原料而不是残余物。
• Delignification chemistry forms a steady current, from kraft sulfur chemistry and chlorine dioxide bleaching kinetics to mechanistic work on the acid condensation of guaiacyl lignin.脱木素化学是常驻水流，从硫酸盐法的硫化学，二氧化氯漂白动力学，到愈创木基木质素酸缩合的机理研究。
• Lignin conversion is handled at molecular level, including lignin nanoparticles engineered for antioxidant and ultraviolet shielding use and the regiochemistry of aromatic carbon attack.木质素转化在分子层面处理，涉及为抗氧化与紫外屏蔽而设计的木质素纳米粒子，以及芳香碳被进攻时的位置选择性。
• Cellulose nanomaterials and their derivatives are welcome, with recent papers reporting carboxylated nanocrystals combined with maleic rosin esters to make superhydrophobic paper.纤维素纳米材料与衍生物在征稿之列，近期刊文报道了羧基化纳米晶与马来松香酯结合制备超疏水纸。

History

• Volume one appeared in 1981 and the front matter of the first issue carried an editorial signed by Donald C. Johnson and Leland R. Schroeder.第 1 卷出现于 1981 年，首卷首期的前置页刊出一篇由 Donald C. Johnson 与 Leland R. Schroeder 署名的社论。
• Volume numbering has run continuously ever since, which makes the start year verifiable, because volume 43 corresponds to 2023 and volume 46 to 2026.卷号此后连续编排，起始年因此可以复核，第 43 卷对应 2023 年，第 46 卷对应 2026 年。
• From the second volume onward each issue printed an editorial board page, and those pages survive in the register as separately recorded items.自第 2 卷起每期都印编辑委员会页，这些页面在登记体系里作为独立条目留存。^[1]
• A 1987 memorial preface to David A. I. Goring, written by Norman Lewis of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, ties the journal to the North American school of wood chemistry.1987 年一篇悼念 David A. I. Goring 的前言出自 Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University 的 Norman Lewis 之手，把期刊与北美木材化学学派连在一起。
• Identifier records show that articles published from 1981 through 2000 were registered inside the Taylor & Francis doi namespace.标识记录显示 1981 至 2000 年刊出的文章登记在 Taylor & Francis 的 doi 空间之内。
• Between 2001 and 2005 new identifiers were minted in the Marcel Dekker namespace, the span during which the Dekker imprint carried the title.2001 到 2005 年的新标识改在 Marcel Dekker 的空间生成，那段时期由 Dekker 出版品牌承载该刊。
• Informa's absorption of Dekker moved the journal back to the 10.1080 prefix from 2006, and the register now lists Informa UK with Taylor & Francis as publisher of record.Informa 并购 Dekker 之后，期刊标识自 2006 年回到 10.1080 前缀，登记信息现列 Informa UK 名下由 Taylor & Francis 出任出版方。
• The print identifier 0277-3813 has been in use since the launch, while the electronic identifier 1532-2319 was added when the online edition opened.印刷版标识 0277-3813 自创刊沿用至今，电子版标识 1532-2319 随在线版上线而增列。
• Publishing cadence drifted from the quarterly rhythm long recorded by bibliographic portals toward six numbered issues a year, with volume 45 closing on a combined issue 5-6.刊期从文献平台长期记录的季刊节奏走向每年 6 个编号期，第 45 卷以合并的第 5 与第 6 期合刊收尾。
• The listed impact history peaks at 2.865 for 2022, settles at 1.7 for both 2023 and 2024 and recovers to 1.9 for 2025.载录的影响因子史在 2022 年冲高至 2.865，2023 与 2024 两年稳定在 1.7，2025 年回升至 1.9。
• Journal Citation Reports count 1366 citations received in the newest statistical year against 19 published documents within 21 citable items.Journal Citation Reports 统计最新一年共收到 1366 次引用，对应 21 份可引用文献中的 19 篇刊文。
• Cumulative tallies assembled by Chinese aggregation portals put lifetime citations near 26,716 over 1349 indexed papers, an ageing profile consistent with the 10.6 year half-life.中文聚合平台统计的累计数据把生命周期引用推到约 2.67 万次，收录论文 1349 篇，老化曲线与 10.6 年半衰期相合。
• Open access never took hold, with no entry in the Directory of Open Access Journals and a gold share of 2.38 percent, so the backfile stays behind a subscription wall.开放获取始终未能主导，期刊未收入开放获取期刊目录，金色开放比例仅 2.38%，存量档案仍在订阅墙之后。

Editors

• Editorial direction at the launch was exercised by Donald C. Johnson together with Leland R. Schroeder, the two who signed the opening editorial of volume one.创刊时的编辑工作由 Donald C. Johnson 与 Leland R. Schroeder 共同主持，二人正是第 1 卷开篇社论的署名者。
• The board is reconstituted in documented batches rather than in a single annual note, since separate identifiers exist for board listings dated 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017.编委会以成批文件的方式改组，而非单条年度通告，2011 年，2013 至 2017 年的编委名单各自登记了独立标识。
• Because a board page accompanied the issues from 1982 onward, the membership of the editorial college can be reconstructed volume by volume.由于 1982 年以后各期都附有编委页，编委会成员构成可以按卷逐一重建。
• Special issues are negotiated with the Editor-in-Chief directly, and a proposal must set out the topic, a list of potential contributors and a working timeline before it is considered.特刊与主编直接商议，提案要先写明主题，潜在作者名单与工作时间表，之后才进入评估。
• Two justifications are accepted for such an issue, namely that it summarizes and analyses state-of-the-art development in biomass chemistry or that it pays tribute to the career of a distinguished researcher.特刊立意限定为两类，一是总结并分析生物质化学领域的最新进展，二是致敬一位有影响的学者的学术生涯。
• Reviews are commissioned rather than solicited from the open market, the journal describing itself as a home above all for original research papers and short communications.综述多由约稿产生，而非面向公开征稿，刊物自我定位首先属于原始研究论文与研究简报。
• Rapidity is written into the aims, which promise fast publication of research advances, and current articles appear online first with provisional pagination such as pages 1-16 before an issue is assigned.刊出速度写进了宗旨条款，承诺尽快发表研究进展，近期文章先以 1 至 16 页的临时页码在线刊出，随后才归入某期。
• Submissions are processed through the ScholarOne Manuscripts site operated for the title, while readers reach the tables of contents on the publisher's own journals platform.投稿经由为该刊开设的 ScholarOne Manuscripts 系统处理，读者则在出版商自有的期刊平台上查阅各期目次。
• Editorial administration is attached to the publisher's United States office at 325 Chestnut Street in Philadelphia, the correspondence address given in the journal record.编务挂靠在出版商的美国办公室，地址为费城 Chestnut 街 325 号，也是期刊记录里的通讯地址。
• Publication ethics follow the publisher's framework, Taylor & Francis being a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics and running every submission through the Crossref similarity checking service.出版伦理遵循出版商整体框架，Taylor & Francis 是国际出版伦理委员会成员，所有投稿都送 Crossref 相似性检查服务比对。
• Community metrics gathered by indexing portals estimate an average first-round turnaround of about three months and rate acceptance as comparatively attainable for methodologically sound work.索引平台汇总的社区数据把平均首轮审稿周期估为三个月左右，也认为方法合格的稿件录用机会相对较高。
• Peer review is a condition of publication for every article type the journal carries, and the record classifies the title as an English-language peer-reviewed scholarly journal.同行评审是该刊所有文体的发表前提，登记信息也把刊物归类为英文的同行评审学术期刊。
