Materials Science reports on current research into such problems as cracking, fatigue and fracture, especially in active environments as well as corrosion and anticorrosion protection of structural metallic and polymer materials, and the development of new materials.

Materials Science is a translation of the Ukrainian journal Fizyko-Khimichna Mekhanika Materialiv.
The Ukrainian volume-year is published in English beginning in July.
All articles are peer-reviewed.
