So far, 10 of the 12 specialized nanotechnology journals in the country have been indexed in international Scopus databases, five of which have received an impact factor.
JCR 2024 included data from over 21,000 journals from 113 countries in 254 research categories.
JCR is a database that provides influential factors and rankings for academic journals in the science, technology and social sciences, most commonly based on citation data. JCR is a widely used resource for evaluating and comparing journals within the research community.
The most well-known metric provided by JCR is the Journal Impact Factor (JIF). JIF is a measure of the frequency at which articles published in a particular journal are cited in a particular year.
JCR data is drawn from the Web of Science Core Collection, a comprehensive citation index.
Only journals that meet strict quality standards for inclusion in the Web of Science Core Collection are featured in the Journal Citation Report.
The annual report provides a rich array of publisher neutral data, metrics and analyses to enhance user understanding of journal performance, including widely recognized JIF and journal citation indicators.
Iran, a major country in nanotechnology research
Iran’s achievements in nanotechnology are noteworthy. The country’s investment in research and development of nanotechnology, as well as the increase in scientific publications and sales of nanotechnology products, has proven Iran’s rise as a global leader in this field, producing and exporting products to various countries around the world.
Access to domestic resources, competitive prices compared to Western countries, as well as high production of raw nanomaterials, nanocatalysts, and advanced equipment, as well as geographical proximity to target markets in neighboring countries, reduced transportation costs, political and trade relations, made Iran become a leading manufacturer of regional nanotechnology products.
Iranian nanotechnology products from various industries are divided into 13 major categories, including civil engineering and construction. Optics, electronics, and photonics. Petroleum and petrochemists. Medicines, health, and happiness. Home appliances; Power and energy; Raw materials; Chemicals; Textiles and clothing; Equipment; Automotive industry and transportation. Industrial machinery; data released by the Vice President of Science and Technology shows agriculture, animal care and water.
