Yes — actively indexed in Scopus, coverage 2021–present, best quartile Q3, CiteScore 1.9.
Journal of Polymer Science and Engineering is Q3 in Materials Chemistry (rank 231 of 327), Q3 in Polymers and Plastics (rank 121 of 168) and Q4 in Chemistry (miscellaneous) (rank 105 of 137), by CiteScore 2025. It is ranked in 4 subject areas in all.
Journal of Polymer Science and Engineering is not in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI), so Clarivate publishes no Journal Impact Factor for it. Its Scopus CiteScore is 1.9, quartile Q3, 29th percentile. Any "impact factor" quoted elsewhere is not the Clarivate metric. Its SCImago Journal Rank (SJR, a free Scopus-based metric) is 0.206, quartile Q3, with an H-index of 5.

Journal of Polymer Science and Engineering published 15 papers in 2025; its busiest recent year was 2018 with 30. 2026* is the year so far.
h-index, i10-index and 2-year mean citedness are open, licence-clear metrics from OpenAlex — not a proprietary impact factor. The subject rank counts only journals that OpenAlex has a figure for; it is not a Scopus or Clarivate ranking. Updated 2026-10-14.
In its latest 62 research articles (2021–2026), authors are most often from China (12.8%), India (11.3%) and Saudi Arabia (8.9%).
Countries are counted fractionally, so a paper by authors from two countries counts half to each.
Scopus status: Active. No retracted papers are recorded. The Problematic Paper Screener flags none of its papers. These are indicators to check, not findings against the journal.
Retractions from OpenAlex; flags from the Problematic Paper Screener (Cabanac, Labbé & Magazinov, CC BY), 2026-09-21 export. A flag marks a paper for a closer look; it is not a finding against the journal.
Index data is curated from public sources (Scopus, Web of Science, ABDC, FT50, UT Dallas, DOAJ). CiteScore and quartiles reflect the latest available Scopus release. Always verify a journal's current status on its official source before submitting.
