Aims and Scope
The Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites is a fully peer-reviewed international journal that publishes original research and review articles on a broad range of today's reinforced plastics and composites including areas in:
Constituent materials: matrix materials, reinforcements and coatings.
Properties and performance: The results of testing, predictive models, and in-service evaluation of a wide range of materials are published, providing the reader with extensive properties data for reference.
Analysis and design: Frequency reports on these subjects inform the reader of analytical techniques, design processes and the many design options available in materials composition.
Processing and fabrication: There is increased interest among materials engineers in cost-effective processing.
Applications: Reports on new materials R&D are often related to the service requirements of specific application areas, such as automotive, marine, construction and aviation.
Reports on special topics are regularly included such as recycling, environmental effects, novel materials, computer-aided design, predictive modelling, and "smart" composite materials.
"The articles in the Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Products are must reading for engineers in industry and for researchers working on leading edge problems" Professor Emeritus Stephen W Tsai National Sun Yat-sen University, Taiwan
This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

The speed is fast, the editor's handling is very prompt, there will be action within three to four days at the slowest. The editor-in-chief also replies to emails quickly. When returning the minor revisions, there was a problem with the system-generated PDF proof. I emailed the editor-in-chief through the system and the editor-in-chief replied the next day using their mobile phone. Worth submitting.
