Capillarity publishes high-quality original research articles and current reviews on fundamental scientific principles and innovations of capillarity in physics, chemistry, biology, environmental science and related emerging fields. All advances in theoretical, numerical and experimental approaches to capillarity in capillary tube and interface dominated structure and system area are welcome.

The following topics are within (but not limited to) the scope of capillarity:

• • Capillary-driven phenomenon in natural/artificial tubes, porous and nanoporous materials
  • Fundamental mechanisms of capillarity aided by theory and experiments
  • Spontaneous imbibition, adsorption, wicking and related applications of capillarity in hydrocarbon production, chemical process and biological sciences
  • Static and dynamic interfacial processes, surfactants, wettability, film and colloids
  • New approaches and technologies on capillarity

Capillarity is a monthly open access journal and free to read for all. The journal provides a communicate platform for researchers who are interested in all fields of capillary phenomenon.

All submitted manuscripts will be blind reviewed and the accepted papers are published quarterly from 2018 to 2021. In 2022, the accepted papers are published bimonthly. In 2023, the accepted papers are published monthly, where it remains today.

This journal follows a single blind peer review workflow using the online review system.

Once a manuscript is submitted, it will be checked by the journal’s editorial office to ensure the files are complete and that the relevant metadata are in order. Then, the Editor-in-Chief performs an initial assessment before inviting a number of potential reviewers to provide a peer-review report. Editor-in-Chief is entitled to reject a manuscript which is deemed to be unsuitable before reviewing. After that, the manuscript is assigned to at least two independent expert reviewers on the basis of their subject expertise. In the full peer review process, the identities of reviewers are keeping anonymous to the authors.

Under the guidance of the reviewers’ decisions, Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection of articles.

All submitted manuscripts will be blind reviewed and the accepted papers are published quarterly from 2018 to 2021. In 2022, the accepted papers are published bimonthly. In 2023, the accepted papers are published monthly, where it remains today.

This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.
