15 Years of Macromolecular Reaction Engineering

In the present year 2021 we have been publishing the 15th volume of Macromolecular Reaction Engineering, initially launched in 2007. The new journal at that time was a spin-off from Macromolecular Materials and Engineering where a section dedicated to the same topic of reaction engineering was successfully published already in 2005–2006.

As written in the inaugural editorial by João B.P. Soares, Timothy F.L. McKenna, and myself, Macromolecular Reaction Engineering (MRE) was launched with the aim of “emphasizing polymer reaction engineering as a crucial component in the development and improvement of polymeric materials” and “providing an independent forum for discussion and dissemination of emerging technologies and scientific advancements in the area of reaction engineering applied to polymerization reactors.”

As of today, MRE indeed continues to be a rather specialized but essential part of the Macromolecular journals portfolio that provides an established and high-quality publication platform for disseminating research results in this field. The latter point is further emphasized by the fact that MRE recently received an excellent new Impact Factor of 1.931, which is the highest value in the journal's history!

Since its launch, MRE has published nearly 700 papers, and those receiving the highest number of citations are listed in Table 1. And while featuring some seminal work in the field, many of the names and topics listed there are still well-known (and active) today.

Furthermore, a new cover layout has been launched recently that will provide authors with a fresher (and more spacious) opportunity to have their work featured on the cover page. First examples can be seen in Figure 1.

The new cover layout introduced in 2021.

Over all these years, MRE was always strongly supported by its International Advisory Board of leading experts in the field. And for this 15th special anniversary issue of MRE which we are presenting as the concluding issue for the year 2021, we are happy to exclusively publish work authored by members of the board, thereby providing an excellent overview of the present state-of-the-art in polymer science research with a strong focus on reaction engineering, process control, or polymerization parameters and modeling.

We hope and trust that you will enjoy reading these results, but of course I cannot close this brief editorial without thanking, on behalf of the entire editorial team, those most important for the success of Macromolecular Reaction Engineering: our authors, board members, and referees, who are submitting their research results and help us with selecting and publishing the most interesting and important content. And last but not least, a big thank-you to our readers for their continuous interest!

Polymer reaction engineering has been and continues to be an important though more specialized field of research, and we look forward to continue offering with our journal, Macromolecular Reaction Engineering, a high-quality publication platform for featuring the best results in this area of research.

15年高分子反应工程

今年 2021 年，我们出版了第 15 卷的高分子反应工程，最初于 2007 年推出。当时的新期刊是高分子材料与工程的衍生品，其中一个专门讨论反应工程同一主题的部分是已于 2005-2006 年成功出版。

正如 João BP Soares、Timothy FL McKenna 和我自己在就职社论中所写，高分子反应工程(MRE) 的推出旨在“强调聚合物反应工程是聚合物材料开发和改进的关键组成部分”和“为讨论和传播应用于聚合反应器的反应工程领域的新兴技术和科学进步提供了一个独立的论坛。”

时至今日，MRE 确实仍然是高分子期刊组合中一个相当专业但必不可少的组成部分，为传播该领域的研究成果提供了一个成熟的高质量出版平台。MRE 最近获得了 1.931 的优秀影响因子，这是该期刊历史上的最高值，这进一步强调了后一点！

自推出以来，MRE 已发表近 700 篇论文，表 1 列出了引用次数最多的论文。虽然在该领域有一些开创性工作，但其中列出的许多名称和主题仍然是众所周知的（和活跃）今天。
