ACS Catalysis’ Impact Factor Takes Another Significant Leap Forward

L

ast year, the release of the 2013 Impact Factor (7.572) established ACS Catalysis as the highest-impact comprehensive catalysis journal, leading to strong growth in manuscript submissions and published content with a concomitant decrease in the acceptance rate. Chemical scientists and engineers worldwide continue to read our articles, letters, reviews, perspectives, viewpoints, and accounts, while contributing some of their best work to the journal as authors. Referees now recognize the publication as a top journal and hold submissions to very high standards of scientific quality, rigor, and impact. As a result, the 2014 Impact Factor (9.312), released last month by Thomson Reuters, has further propelled the journal to a level where it now compares favorably with many flagship multidisciplinary chemistry journals, while remaining atop the global array of catalysis titles publishing original research. This achievement is a testament to the dedication of authors, reviewers, and editors in upholding high scientific standards for the journal, as well as the talents of the manuscript processing and journal production staff who ensure that a high quality finished product is produced accurately and rapidly. Catalysis continues to be an essential part of chemistry, the central science, and ACS Catalysis remains poised to offer the scientific community the comprehensive forum for cutting edge catalysis research.
