The publication charges for articles in Materials International are covered by AMG Transcend Association, Romania. Through this, Materials International addresses equality in academic publishing, by making the process available to both researchers and readers. Besides this, authors benefit from
increased visibility of their research and thus, an increase of citations and higher influence in the academic world.
