Replying to the above, it's not normal. The review process usually doesn't take this long, typically it's a review period of 4 weeks. When he asked me to review the draft, it was within this timeframe. Other reviewers usually return their comments within 4 weeks, only when a reviewer cannot be found does the process take longer. If you want it done quickly, submit to journals that are on the rise, with a high frequency of publication. These journals have more reviewers, such as Alloys and Compounds. Specialized or newer materials like JOM may not be as friendly. For conventional materials, it's best to submit to multiple journals

How long is the review period for this journal? Is it normal for your article to be under review for 4 months?

As someone who has reviewed for the JOM journal before, this journal typically invites 3+ reviewers, with responses from 2 reviewers considered as valid reviews. Reviewing is, after all, voluntary work, but not without benefits. Reviewers' names will appear in the annual acknowledgments, and there are too many material journals, it seems that the impact factor has decreased again this year. Let's all submit more and get cited more

The longer an old journal exists, the worse it gets. I reviewed this journal twice, and the articles the editor sent me were quite average, or even completely unreadable. Even articles written by undergraduate beginners could be submitted for review, with citation errors in the references, some of which were completely irrelevant to the articles. I hope the editor will take the initial review seriously.

In a hurry to finish an article, I submitted it to this journal. The process was slow, as the editor had a lot of time on hand due to difficulty finding reviewers, which left me feeling speechless.

In total, it took 6 months, with the editor suggesting that I recommend the JOM journal. I specifically came here to leave a review. Many thanks to the chief editor, Kelly Markel

Received on March 21, 2023. It was not easy, my first SCI paper, although it is in the fourth quartile. The topic may not be very suitable for the journal, and it took a long time to invite reviewers. Accepted after minor revisions. Thanks to the editor, thanks to JOM journal
