I'm not anything close to a Materials Engineer, but at least in the (very different) fields in which I've published, it's very standard to not share material (e.g.: plasmids, bacteria, code, or datasets) until you've published.

Pre-prints rarely have code or data available if the authors intend to publish elsewhere (again, in my field).



Ok, that may well be the explanation then. As long as those samples don't go missing...


The whole point is for the samples to not go missing because they will likely need them in rounds of review.
