History

The journal was established in 1953 as Acta Metallurgica and renamed to Acta Metallurgica et Materialia in 1990, before obtaining its current name in 1996. Since 1956, it was published by Pergamon Press, with the imprint being retained for some time after the acquisition by Elsevier. It incorporates Nanostructured Materials that was published independently from 1992 to 1999. Scripta Materialia was established in 1967 as a companion journal, publishing rapid communications as well as opinion articles called Viewpoints.
