Journal decision profile

Each spoke is a 0–100 percentile within a comparable journal cohort—not a percentage grade or a single black-box rating.

Relative profile

Metrics ScoreThe raw 2026 Journal Metrics Score is the recent two-year citation average shown above. The radar converts it to a 0–100 cohort percentile: farther out means a higher score than more comparable journals. It is not a percentage grade.iSource outputThe raw rank compares lifetime output inside the journal’s leading-topic source set. The radar then compares that rank position across Decision Profile journals in the same primary OpenAlex field; when that field has too few profiles, it uses the broader profile set. Farther out means relatively more output, not better research quality.iTop 10% shareThe share of recent papers in the global top 10% for citations after comparing papers of the same type, publication year, and subfield. The radar converts that share to a 0–100 cohort percentile; it does not predict how a new paper will perform.iMedian FWCICitation performance of the middle recent paper after field, year, and work type are considered. A raw FWCI of 1.0 is the expected citation level for comparable papers; the radar shows its 0–100 cohort percentile.iSubmission-to-acceptanceCalendar days from the received date to the accepted date in recent PubMed records. This includes editorial handling and author revisions, so it is not the time to first decision and not pure peer-review time. The radar uses a 0–100 cohort percentile with shorter observed timing plotted farther out; it does not measure review quality.iOutput volumeAverage works published per year in the recent analysis window, converted to a 0–100 cohort percentile. Farther out means the journal publishes more papers; it does not mean those papers are better.i
Cost is intentionally excluded. Missing APC data is never converted to a zero-dollar fee or a fabricated cost score.

What does Median FWCI mean?

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 0.28, so its typical recent paper runs about 72% below its field benchmark.

What does Top 10% Share mean?

1.2% of recent papers rank in the global top 10% after field normalization. This is easier to compare across specialties than raw citation totals.

Publishing pattern

Publication volume and article mix

Volume is separated from citation accumulation so newer papers are not presented as weaker simply because they are newer.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry's 2026 Journal Metrics Score is 5.3. Recent papers took a median of 131 days from submission to acceptance, according to PubMed dates. OpenAlex classifies its papers in subfields including Organic Chemistry, Electrochemistry, and Electrical and Electronic Engineering, so check that your topic fits its scope.

What is Turkish Journal of Chemistry's Journal Metrics Score in 2026?

Turkish Journal of Chemistry's 2026 Journal Metrics Score is 5.3, 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.

What is the acceptance rate of Turkish Journal of Chemistry?

We have not found an official acceptance rate published by Turkish Journal of Chemistry 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 131 days from submission to acceptance. To judge selectivity, compare Turkish Journal of Chemistry's quartile and score with similar journals, or ask the editorial office.

What quartile is Turkish Journal of Chemistry in?

Turkish Journal of Chemistry's best quartile is Q1. By OpenAlex subfield: Q1 in Organic Chemistry; Q1 in Electrochemistry; Q1 in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Quartiles rank journals by Journal Metrics Score within each subfield.

Is the Journal Metrics Score the same as other journal citation metrics?

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 Turkish Journal of Chemistry will not match this score exactly. Compare journals using one source at a time.

How long does Turkish Journal of Chemistry take to accept a paper?

Turkish Journal of Chemistry accepts papers a median of 131 days after submission across 100 recent PubMed records with both dates; the middle half took 95–204 days. This includes peer review, editorial handling, and revisions.

How long is the peer review time at Turkish Journal of Chemistry?

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 Turkish Journal of Chemistry, which includes peer review and revisions, has a median of 131 days. For the time to a first decision, check the journal's own website.

Is Turkish Journal of Chemistry faster than similar journals?

Turkish Journal of Chemistry's median of 131 days from submission to acceptance is slower than 85% of comparable journals with PubMed timing data.

Which journals are alternatives to Turkish Journal of Chemistry?
