The Royal Society of Chemistry has announced that its journals portfolio has performed well across the board with Chemical Science, Chemical Society Reviews and Energy and Environmental Science seeing substantial rises in their Impact Factors.
Energy and Environmental Science, which launched in 2008, performed strongly with a 32.5 percent rise to an Impact Factor (IF) of 20.523. The journal continues to be the first in the Environmental Sciences category of the 2014 Journal Citation Report (JCR)* and comes in the top 5 percent of journals in all four of the ISI categories where it is listed.
Chemical Science showed continued IF development receiving 9.211, a 7.1 percent rise, ranking it 14 from 148 journals in the Chemistry, Multidisciplinary category. In January 2015, Chemical Science became a Gold Open Access journal.
Chemical Society Reviews saw an increase in IF to 33.383, ranked second in the Chemistry, Multidisciplinary category, while Chemical Communications received an IF of 6.834.
Journal of Materials Chemistry, which evolved into three journals: A, B and C in 2013, all received their first Impact Factors of A- 7.443, B-4.726 and C-4.696.
The 2014 JCR indicates the quality of content, and citation impact, across the RSC's titles. Other notable increases included Green Chemistry which saw a 17 percent increase to an IF of 8.020 and Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, which launched in 1999, rose 7 percent to 4.493.
