Highly Cited Articles of Corrosion Research in Science Citation Index Expanded

Abstract

Two chapters entitled "of the mechanical origin of corrosiveness" and "of the mechanical origin of corrodibility" by Robert Boyle in 1675 were considered the origin of corrosion research [1]. In the beginning of 19 th century, the whole subject of corrosion was observed an electrochemical phenomenon [2]. The corrosion of ammonium nitrite [3], diazo solutions [4], brasses [5], iron and steel [6] were paid attention. The research on the corrosion of brasses in 1907 received an award granted by the American Electrochemical Society [5]. The Technical Committee on Corrosion, the forerunner of the Corrosion Division of electrochemical society, was formed in 1921 [7]. In 1930s, important symposia "inhibitors, corrosion and pH, corrosion of alloys and influence of cathodic reactions on corrosion" were presented [7]. Pourbaix [8] introduced thermodynamics in corrosion studies and potential-pH diagrams, now known as Pourbaix Diagram [9]. The emergence of new electrochemical and non-electrochemical techniques for the study of corrosion reactions and corrosion products greatly accelerated during the 1970s and has continued to the present day [10]. Some outstanding scholars e.g.

Trends of mobile learning: A review of the top 100 highly cited papers

“…On the other hand, researchers tend to cite high‐quality papers and indicative papers that are useful for their own research (Mohr et al , ). A high citation count is an indication of high impact on the research field, and reveals the recognition of research advancement (Fu & Ho, ). Therefore, researchers have indicated that a list of highly cited papers can be used to identify the advances in the research foci (Lin, Lin, & Tsai, ; Tang, Li, Hsin, & Tsai, ).…”

What makes articles cited highly? An analysis of Top 100 Highly Cited Articles on Organizational Citizenship Behavior

“…Tang et al, (2016) affirmed that a list of highly influential articles could be helpful to emphasize the advances in a particular field. Fu and Ho (2018) imply that the number of citations confirms the impact of an article in the field and also highlights the acknowledgment of research progression. Accordingly, the current study assessed the extent to which highly cited articles have influenced the field of OCB.…”

A systematic review of the top-50 most-cited articles on socio-scientific issues in K-12 education

“…Relevance model of science education (Stuckey et al, 2013) 3 / 18 al., 2017). Such articles not only signify substantial influence within the research field but also encapsulate classical research topics and valuable research queries within the domain (Flores et al, 1999;Fu & Ho, 2018). Consequently, a literature review containing a compilation of highly cited articles can aid novices in identifying pivotal research advancements and significant topics that scholars frequently prioritize.…”
