Is the journal of nanotechnology research a predatory Journal?

Dear Sajib Aninda Dhar
Yes, is it. There are numerous ‘issues’ with this journal (and publisher):
-The publisher is mentioned in the updated version of the Beall’s list (https://beallslist.net/#update )
-The prominently mentioned impact factor is false since they are not indexed in one of Clarivate’s indexes (you can check here https://mjl.clarivate.com/home )
-The same is true for the CiteScore, they cannot mention this since they are not indexed in Scopus (https://www.scopus.com/sources.uri )
-Their indexing info (https://www.fortunejournals.com/journal-of-nanotechnology-research-aimsscope-fjnr.php ) mentions DRJI which is a notorious example of a so-called misleading metrics (https://beallslist.net/misleading-metrics/ )
-See also another question here on RG https://www.researchgate.net/post/Does_anyone_know_about_Archives_of_Clinical_and_Biomedical_Research_Fortune_journals
Personally, I would say: avoid.
Best regards.
Dr. Keller. Thank you and I appreciate your help. It was so helpful as I was not getting the Beall’s list. I always tried to avoid predotory journal althrough my career and did not publish any by myself. However, a recent publication was done by one of my peers where I was included as a co-author. I did not know about the submission. Now I will eliminate it from my Google Scholar as its a black spot to my academic career. So I have made it confirmed before the elimination. I really appreciate your help. Take care.
Yes, I'd say they are:

The text here wasn't written by someone terribly familiar with English.

Or with the rudiments of how to convey information by a flow-chart.
I'd avoid it.
