Aims and Scope
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.

Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.

Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.

8.08 Submission, on the same day the General Editor replied for language revision.
8.09 Revised submission (R1), assigned to an editor on the same day.
8.27 Review completed, two reviewers. Reviewer 1 provided sharp comments mainly on the novelty, suggesting major revisions or rejection; Reviewer 2 provided minor revisions.
9.23 Revised (R2), assigned to an editor the next day.
11.05 Review completed, Reviewer 1 still unsatisfied, emphasizing the novelty and suggesting rejection; Reviewer 2 raised two minor issues.
11.05 Revised submission returned (R3) on the same day.
11.15 Status changed to "required reviews completed."
11.25 Acceptance.
Summary: From submission to final acceptance, it took approximately 3.5 months. The journal assigned an editor quickly, with the initial assignment being the General Editor (Pietro Vincenzini), later transferred to the Assistant Scientific Editor (Xiao Hu) for this submission. The editors promptly sent the manuscript for review, and the review process was also relatively fast (the journal gave reviewers a deadline of 2 weeks). However, it may take some time to summarize and address the reviewers' comments and make a decision, thus resulting in a longer duration for "required reviews completed."
