About the journal
The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry is the foremost international journal devoted to the interdisciplinary subject of electrochemistry in all its aspects, theoretical as well as applied.
Electrochemistry is a wide ranging area that is in a state of continuous evolution. Rather than compiling a long list of topics covered by the Journal, the editors would like to draw particular attention to the key issues of novelty, topicality and quality. Papers should present new and interesting electrochemical science in a way that is accessible to the reader. The presentation and discussion should be at a level that is consistent with the internantional status of the Journal. Reports describing the application of well-established techniques to problems that are essentially technical will not be accepted. Similarly papers that report observations but fail to provide adequate interpretation will be rejected by the Editors. Papers dealing with technical electrochemistry should be submitted to other specialist journals unless the authors can show that their work provides substantially new insights into electrochemical processes.

Editorial Policy
The Editors wish to ensure that the Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry continues to serve the world scientific community by publishing, as rapidly as possible, papers of a high scientific quality. Authors and Referees are asked to pay particular attention to the criteria for acceptance that are outlined in the description of the Aims and Scope of the Journal. In summary, papers should present new experimental or theoretical results or present new interpretations of existing results, leading to significant advances in knowledge and understanding.
The Editors regard it as their duty to assist authors to achieve clarity and brevity in accepted papers. They will provide advice to authors in addition to the comments made by referees. Authors are asked to pay careful attention to the information about the preparation of manuscripts and figures given in the Guide for Authors http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/jelechem.
The Editors are bound to perform their duties in accordance with the highest ethical standards. Referees and authors also have a clear obligation to act in accordance with these standards.
Electrochemistry is an evolving discipline that is important in many contexts. In recognition of the dynamic nature of the subject, the Editors welcome contributions from scientists working in areas in which the contribution of Electrochemistry is beginning to emerge.
Although Short Communications are accepted for publication, the Editors wish to discourage fragmentation of a substantial body of work into a number of short publications. Authors who wish to communicate novel work of urgent interest should submit short papers to Electrochemistry Communications.
Refereeing Policy
Manuscripts that are judged by the Editors to fall within the scope of the Journal will be considered independently by at least two referees. Authors are encouraged to suggest the names and e-mail addresses of three referees who could give an objective and competent evaluation of their work. However, the final choice of referees used will be made by the Editors.
The referees' reports provide advice for Editors to assist them in reaching a decision on a submitted paper. The final decision concerning a manuscript is the responsibility of the Editors.
If there is a notable disagreement between the reports of two referees, or if a disagreement between the authors and the referees cannot be resolved with the Editor's help, a third referee may be consulted for advice.
The anonymity of Referees is strictly preserved. Referees should not communicate directly with authors or pass confidential information to third parties. An exception is the case where a polemical contribution is concerned. In this case a Referee may ask an Editor for permission to enter into a dialogue with authors.
All manuscripts and supplementary material are treated as confidential by the Editors. They will be disclosed only to Referees. Referees are expected to respect the confidential nature of submitted manuscripts.
If a submitted paper or comment is judged by the Editor to be polemical, the interested parties will be informed and invited to enter into a discussion. Discussion should continue until the participants reach agreement on whether or not the original or amended paper should be published together with a comment and reply. Comments and replies should be limited wherever possible to two printed pages (including figures), will be classified as Short Communications, and refereed in the normal way.
Revised papers should normally be resubmitted within 12 weeks of the date of rejection. In exceptional circumstances, the Editors may extend this period if requested to do so. The dates of receipt of the original and final revised versions will both appear in the publication.
Rejected papers will be returned to the authors only if the authors request the Editors to do so.
The Editors may invite authors to submit articles on particular topics. Such papers will be subject to the same rigorous refereeing as all other submitted papers.
The Editors may appoint a Guest Editor for a special issue of the Journal. One of the Editors will provide advice and support in the preparation of the special issue. Papers for special issues will be refereed in the normal way, in accordance with the Journal's policy.
Types of contributions
(a) Regular papers reporting original research work not previously published in other periodicals.
(b) Reviews on recent developments in various fields of interest.
(c) Short communications.
All contributions must be written in English.
A Short Communication is a concise, but complete, description of a limited investigation, which will not be included in a later article. Short communications should be as completely documented, both by reference to the literature and description of the experimental procedures employed, as a regular article.
Reviews should cover a part of the subject of active current interest. They may be submitted or invited.
Submission of contributions
Authors should submit three copies of their manuscripts, one complete set of original illustrations and two copies to the Editors. For the final version, in addition to the original and two copies, authors should submit an electronic version of their manuscript on disk.
Alternatively, manuscripts can be submitted online via http://www.elsubmit.com/esubmit/jec.
Papers should be sent to the appropriate Editor according to subject.

Contributions are accepted on the understanding that the authors have obtained the necessary authority for publication. Submission of an article must be accompanied by a statement that the article is original and unpublished and is not being considered for publication elsewhere. Upon acceptance of an article by the Journal, the author(s) will be asked to transfer the copyright of the article to the Publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information. Authors are reminded that delays in publication may occur if the instructions for submission and disk and manuscript preparation are not strictly followed. Authors are strongly recommended to submit online or on disks to aid rapid processing. To facilitate communication, authors are requested to provide their current e-mail address, telephone and fax number.
There are no page charges
Manuscript preparation
Manuscripts should be typed in double spacing on one side of consecutively numbered pages of A4 (21cm x 30 cm) or equivalent, with a wide margin on the left.
In addition to the original, two copies should be submitted. When a revised version of a manuscript is submitted, a disk together with two copies should be sent together with the original figures. A reply to the referee's comments should be included.
Some flexibility of presentation will be allowed but authors are urged to arrange the subject matter clearly under such headings as Introduction, Experimental, Results, Discussion, etc.
For a rough estimate of the final length of their printed article, authors should count 850 words per full two-column page and four illustrations per page.
Language
Papers will be published in English. Authors' manuscripts must be consistent in style, spelling and syntax. Authors in Japan please note that information about how to have the English of your paper checked, corrected and improved (before submission) is available from:

Title
Articles should be headed by a concise but informative title. This should be followed by the name(s) of the author(s) and by the name and address of the laboratory in which the work was carried out. If the address of the author(s) at the time when the paper will appear is other than the laboratory in which the work was carried out this maybe stated in a footnote, but footnotes should otherwise be avoided. The name and complete address of the person to whom the proofs are sent must be given, inclusive of e-mail address, telephone and fax numbers, on the title page as well as on a separate cover sheet. Recognition of financial support should not be made by a footnote to the title or name(s) of the author(s), but should be included in Acknowledgements at the end of the paper.
Abstracts
The abstract is the part of your paper which will be read by the largest number of scientists so it plays a crucial role. The abstract is a condensation of the information (facts) in the paper; it is not a description of the contents of the paper. The abstract should present as much as possible of the qualitative and quantitive information contained in the paper yet it should be brief (50 - 250 words), specific and self-contained.
The abstract may include the following:
The context for the work;
The purpose or objectives of the work (what was the research question or problem and why it is important);
Theoretical or experimental methods used;
Results (qualitative and quantitative);
Conclusions and their limitations (what was the meaning of the results);
Safety information concerning the dangerous compounds or procedures if relevant.
If the paper reports a new instrument or method then the abstract should include a description of its advantages and disadvantages compared to other established techniques.
The abstract should not include trivial experimental details, references, figures or equations.
Keywords
A maximum of six keywords should be given below the abstract to describe the contents of the paper. Keywords should be selected, if appropriate, from the following classes: theoretical methods, experimental methods, phenomena, materials, and applications. A recommended list of current keywords used in the Journal is published regularly. This list may also be obtained from the Editors or Publisher and is also available at: http://www.chemweb.com/fora/electro/ecos/jec/keyw.shtml
Introduction
A full-length submission should have a short Introduction. This should state the reasons for the work, with brief references to previous work on the subject. It should not include the conclusions from the work being presented.
References
The references should be brought together at the end of the article, and numbered in the order of their apperance in the text. Footnotes should not include bibliographic material. Authors should check that every reference in the text appears in the list of references and vice versa. Numerals for references are given in square brackets [ ]; each number should correspond to a single reference, i.e. multiple references are not acceptable. In the text, authors' names are given without initials. When reference is made to a publication written by more than two authors, it is preferable to give only the first author's name in the text followed by "et al.". However, in the list of references the names and initials of all authors must be given. In the reference list, periodicals [1], books [2] and multi-author books [3] should be cited in accordance with the following examples.
1.P. Audebert, P. Hapiot, J. Electroanal. Chem. 361 (1993) 177.
2. J. Newman, Electrochemical Systems, 2nd ed., Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, 1991.
3. A. R. Hillman, in R.G. Linford (Ed.), Electrochemical Science and Technology of Polymers, vol. 1, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1987, Ch.5.
Abbreviations for the titles of journals should follow the system used by Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index, 1970 edition, and supplements. References to books should include the following information: editor(s), title, publisher, town of publication, year of publication and page number. This information should also be given for published proceedings or abstracts of conferences, together with the location and date of the meeting, e.g.
4. B. Miller, Proc. 6th Australian Electrochem. Conf., Geelong, Vic., 19-24 Feb., 1984, J. Electroanal. Chem., 168 (1984) 91.
Each reference must be complete, thus the use of ibid.,idem., et al., etc. is not permitted. Articles not yet published should be given as "in press", "submitted for publication" with the name of the journal, or "in preparation". Details of personal communications or unpublished results should be given as a reference, e.g.
5. A. Jones, personal communication, 1992.
Tables
Tables should be typed in double spacing on separate sheets and provided with a suitable heading. Tables should be clearly referred to in the text using Arabic numerals. Considerable thought should be given to layout so that the significance of the results can be easily grasped. Each table should have a title which makes the general meaning understandable without reference to the text.
Vertical lines should not be used to separate columns.
Column headings should be sufficiently explanatory, and presented in a way consistent with the column width. Units of measurement should be given in the form consistent with "quantity calculus" (see J. Electroanal. Chem. 271 (1989) 370). Thus a column of concentration values should be headed cNaCl/mol l-1, and a column of emf values should be headed E/mV, etc.
Columns of figures multiplied by the same power of ten should not be presented as such. The power often should be indicated in the column heading,
e.g.:104 [NaCl]/mol l-1
4.2
3.5
0.26
rather than
[NaCl]/moll-1
4.2 x 10-4
3.5 x 10-4
2.6 x 10-5
Illustrations
Line drawings should be in a form suitable for direct reproduction, drawn in black ink on drawing or tracing paper. Alternatively, illustrations may be supplied as high contrast, black and white glossy photographs. Where magnifications are concerned, it is preferable to indicate the scale by means of a ruled line on the photograph.
Illustrations will, when possible, be reproduced in one-column format. Please bear in mind that the A4 page will be reduced to 34% to fit in a single-column and to 73% to fit in a double-column. Thus, the initial font size used in the drawings should be 4.5 mm (Times Roman 18) and 2-2.5 mm (Times Roman 10-12) high, respectively.
All illustrations should preferably require the same degree of reduction and be submitted on paper of the same size as, or smaller than, the main text to prevent damage in transit. Legend boxes and annotations within the illustration should be avoided. Legends (captions) to illustrations should be typed in sequence on a separate page or pages and be understandable without reference to the text.
Illustrations can be printed in colour when they are judged by the Editor to be essential to the presentation. The Publisher and author will each bear part of the extra costs involved. The charge to be passed on to authors of articles containing colour figures is EUR 635 (approx. US$ 640) for the first page containing colour and EUR 318 (approx.US$ 320) for each additional page containing colour. Authors will be billed in Euro's; the dollar price is for guidance only and is based on the exchange rate at the time of the preparation of these instructions.
The axes of a graph should be clearly labelled with the quantity plotted, and its units. This should be done using "quantity calculus" notation in the same way as described for column headings above e.g.I/mA. Positive values should be plotted upwards and to the right.
A photocopy of each figure should also be supplied with each copy of the manuscript. They should be numbered and identified with the names of the authors.
Original illustrations are not returned except by special request.

Preparation of manuscripts on disk
Main Text
Articles prepared using any of the more popular word-processing packages are acceptable but please note the following points.
- Submissions should be made online or on disk.
- The disk format, word-processor format, file name(s) and the title and authors of the article must be indicated on the disk.
- The disk must always be accompanied by a hard-copy version of the article, and the content of the two must be identical.
- The disk text must be the same as that of the final refereed, revised manuscript.
- Disks formatted for eithe IBM PC compatibles or Apple Macintosh are preferred. If you can provide either of these, our preference is for the former.
- The article must be saved in the native format of the word processor used, e.g. WordPerfect, Microsoft Word,etc.
- Although most popular word processor file formats are acceptable, we cannot guarantee the usability of all formats. If the disk you send us proves to be unusable, we will publish your article from the hard copy.
- Please do not send ASCII files as relevant data may be lost.
- There is no need to spend time formatting your article so that the printout is visually attractive (e.g. by making headings bold or creating a page layout with figures), as most formatting instructions will be removed upon processing.
- Leave a blank line between each paragraph and between each entry in the list of bibliographic references.
- Tables should preferably be placed in the same electronic file as the text. Authors should consult a recent issue of the Journal for table layout.
Graphics
General
Although there are still a large number of technical difficulties to overcome, we are processing graphic files in a growing number of cases. Both scanned and computer-generated illustrations, either in colour or black and white are acceptable.
Requirements
The following requirements are to be met:
A hard copy of the manuscript should be sent in all cases. Since we cannot a priori guarantee the usability of your graphic file(s), hard copies of all illustrations should accompany the accepted printout of the manuscript in all cases. One set should be in a publishable condition.
Disks: Files should preferably be submitted on disk, either IBM or Macintosh. Submission via e-mail is not recommended for large files.
Format: TIFF or EPS files are preferred. TIFF files should preferably be compressed, but only LZW (Macintosh) compression is acceptable. Please note that corrections in EPS figures are only possible if they have been prepared with Adobe Illustrator 3.0 or higher versions. The acceptability of other formats is to a large extent dependent on the information you supply us with concerning the software and hardware used. It is a good idea to put the relevant information in the header of the file.
Resolution:Drawings made with Adobe Illustrator and Aldus Freehand(Macintosh) and CorelDraw (IBM/DOS) generally give good results. Drawings made in WordPerfect or Word generally have too low a resolution; only if made at a much higher resolution (1016 dpi) can they be used. Files of scanned line drawings are acceptable if done at a minimum of 1016 dpi. For scanned halftone figures a resolution of 300 dpi is sufficient. Scanned figures compressed with JPEG usually give no problems. Please note that scanned figures cannot be enlarged; only reduced.
Symbols and terminology
General
It is strongly preferred that authors follow the recommendations of the IUPAC Manual of Symbols and Terminology for Physico-chemical Quantities and Units, edited by I.M. Mills, Blackwells, Oxford, 1988. Some examples of recommended usage are given here (see also J.Electroanal. Chem., 271 (1989) 371-379).
If authors depart from these recommendations, articles may be returned for correction or corrected in the editorial office. In the latter case, no responsibility for errors can be assumed.
S.I. units should be used.
"Equivalents" and "Normalities" should not be used.
Meaningless units (e.g. e.u.) should not be used.
Concentration should be denoted by the chemical formula in square brackets, or by lower case c. Units of concentration should be given as mol dm-3, mol cm-3, M, mol l-1, etc.
Mixtures should be indicated by a plus sign, e.g. Zn + Cu, H2O +CH3OH etc.
Interfaces should be indicated by a vertical bar.
The function G should be called Gibbs energy, not Gibbs free energy or free enthalpy.
Some terms of historical interest only should be avoided, e.g. depolarizer, polarization (of electrodes).
Mathematical formulae
Formulae should be typewritten, if possible.
Subscripts and superscripts should be set off clearly. Special care should be taken, if a dot-matrix printer is used, that subscripts and superscripts are legible.
Greek letters and handwritten symbols should be explained in the margin where they are first used. Special care should be taken to show clearly the difference between zero (0)and the letter O, and between one (1) and the letter l.
The meaning of all symbols should be given immediately after the equation in which they are first used, or a list of definitions provided. Abbreviations not in common use should be defined.
For fractions, especially in the text, space can be saved by using the solidus (/) or by using negative exponents instead of a horizontal line, e.g. Ip/2m or Ip(2m)-1
If necessary, parentheses can be used to avoid ambiguity.
All equations (mathematical and chemical) should be numbered sequentially in parentheses at the right-hand margin. They should be treated as part of the text.
The use of fractional powers instead of root signs is recommended. Complicated powers of e are often more conveniently denoted by exp(...).
Natural or Napierian logarithms should be denoted by ln, whereas decadic logarithms should be denoted by log.
The multiplication sign should be used in floating point numbers to avoid confusion, e.g. 4.25 x 105. The decimal point should always be denoted by a full stop.
Chemical formulae and nomenclature
Nomenclature should follow IUPAC recommendations. For inorganic chemistry, see: Nomenclature of Inorganic Chemistry, Butterworths, London, 1971. For organic chemistry, see: Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry, Pergamon, Oxford, 1979.
Structural formulae should be numbered with roman numerals: they should be submitted on separate sheets in a form suitable for direct reproduction.
Drawn structural formulae should use upright lettering.
Electrochemical Conventions
Due to HTML restrictions, Electrochemical Conventions cannot be displayed here. Please refer to a printed Guide for Authors or access the PDF version.
Proofs
Authors will receive a PDF-proof via e-mail. Therefore, it is essential to provide an e-mail address where the proof should be sent. The authors are requested to correct and return as soon as possible, preferably by fax. No new material may be inserted in the text at the time of proof-reading. Any Note added in proof must be dated and the author must have requested and received the Editor's approval.
Offprints
Twentyfive offprints are supplied to authors free of charge. Additional offprints may be ordered at prices shown on the offprint order form which will accompany the proofs. This order form should be returned promptly because the price of offprints ordered after publication is substantially higher.
