Introduction

Students usually learn how to do research and publish the research findings in the national and international research journals during undergraduate level. They must accomplish research project works especially while they are in the final semester. In addition, many students are involved in different research teams led by senior researchers. One of the main motivations of these kinds of research is to publish the research outcomes in the reputed research journals or present in the well-recognized conferences. Otherwise, the research outcomes are limited to very few people. The mass people or any scientific community cannot know about that research outcomes. That is why, there is a saying that “Publish or perish!!!”.

How many research papers are published each year?

Nowadays, significant research is being done in each discipline. Thanks to the rapid advancement in the science and technology, doing research has been more facilitated. Approximately 2.5 million new scientific papers are published each year, where China, the US, and India hold the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd positions, respectively. So, to cope with this highly competitive race, students must learn about research and publication during their student lives. Many undergraduate research projects outcomes are found to be published in good research journals with high impact factors. However, this is not common scenario rather most of them are either not published or published in no famous research journals.

Which research journals are preferred for publications?

It is highly recommended to publish the articles in those research journals that are indexed in web of science, Scopus, etc. rather than publishing in various commercial journals/magazines which are termed as predatory journals. No credits are found from publishing the research outcomes in those predatory journals. Because real scientific society does not follow those journals. In this article, you are going to know about some of the textile research journals with low (impact factor below 1.00), medium (impact factor between 1~5) and high impact factor (above 5.00) that are indexed in web of science. Please note that, the list provided below covers traditional textiles, textile materials or advanced textiles, polymer chemistry or textile dyes-chemicals.
