THERMOCHIM ACTA

ISSN / eISSN
0040-6031 / 1872-762X
Aims and Scope
Thermochimica Acta publishes original research contributions covering all aspects of thermoanalytical and calorimetric methods and their application to experimental chemistry, physics, biology and engineering. The journal aims to span the whole range from fundamental research to practical application.

The journal focuses on the research that advances physical and analytical science of thermal phenomena. Therefore, the manuscripts are expected to provide important insights into the thermal phenomena studied or to propose significant improvements of analytical or computational techniques employed in thermal studies. Manuscripts that report the results of routine thermal measurements are not suitable for publication in Thermochimica Acta.

The journal particularly welcomes papers from newly emerging areas as well as from the traditional strength areas:
- New and improved instrumentation and methods
- Thermal properties and behavior of materials
- Kinetics of thermally stimulated processes

During the process, there were two major revisions and one minor revision. In the first major revision, the editor raised a question regarding the selection of the dynamic model, and both reviewers provided over 40 questions. It took over a month to respond to the letter, and the content was longer than the main text. In the second major revision, one of the reviewers provided suggestions on the structure of the article, which were then incorporated into the modifications. The third minor revision mainly addressed issues with sentence construction. Both the editor and the reviewers were very responsible and paid close attention to detail. As a result of the three revisions, the quality of the article significantly improved.

I misunderstood the previous review timeline, thinking it was the response time for the first review comments. The actual review process took 2.5 months. The speed and quality were both excellent, and I hope it is helpful for everyone.
