Below field-year expectation
of 1,673 topic-associated OpenAlex sources by lifetime output
FWCI compares papers with the same publication year, type, and field. 1.0 is the world average; above 1.0 is above expectation. This journal's median is 0.13, so its typical recent paper runs about 87% below its field benchmark.
1.3% of recent papers rank in the global top 10% after field normalization. This is easier to compare across specialties than raw citation totals.
Volume is separated from citation accumulation so newer papers are not presented as weaker simply because they are newer.

A lower-cited Q4 journal by citation data
By citation data, Chimia is in the lowest quartile in Environmental Chemistry and 2 other subfields and ranks #710 of 877 Chemistry journals by Journal Metrics Score (top 81%). A Q4 placement means its papers are cited less than most in the subfield; on its own it does not mean the journal is predatory or that its peer review is weak. Chimia's 2026 Journal Metrics Score is 0.9. Recent papers took a median of 29 days from submission to acceptance, according to PubMed dates. OpenAlex classifies its papers in subfields including Environmental Chemistry, Physical and Theoretical Chemistry, and Molecular Biology, so check that your topic fits its scope.

Chimia's 2026 Journal Metrics Score is 0.9, from the August 2026 data release. The score is a two-year citation average computed from OpenAlex (CC0) data: citations received in the most recent complete year to works published in the two prior years, divided by the number of those works.
We have not found an official acceptance rate published by Chimia or its publisher, and Journal Metrics does not estimate one because submission counts are not public. What recent PubMed records do show is speed: accepted papers took a median of 29 days from submission to acceptance. To judge selectivity, compare Chimia's quartile and score with similar journals, or ask the editorial office.
Chimia's best quartile is Q4. By OpenAlex subfield: Q4 in Environmental Chemistry; Q4 in Physical and Theoretical Chemistry; Q4 in Molecular Biology. Quartiles rank journals by Journal Metrics Score within each subfield.
No. Journal Metrics computes the score independently from OpenAlex open data. Other providers use different citation databases, document types, and counting rules, so their published figures for Chimia will not match this score exactly. Compare journals using one source at a time.
Chimia accepts papers a median of 29 days after submission across 60 recent PubMed records with both dates; the middle half took 13–47 days. This includes peer review, editorial handling, and revisions.
PubMed records when a manuscript was received and accepted, not the individual review stages, so peer review time on its own is not available. The full time from submission to acceptance at Chimia, which includes peer review and revisions, has a median of 29 days. For the time to a first decision, check the journal's own website.
Chimia's median of 29 days from submission to acceptance is faster than 99% of comparable journals with PubMed timing data.
