Authors will receive an immediate acknowledgement of receipt of their paper, and subsequently notification of acceptance or rejection according to the referees' recommendations and the Executive Editorial Board's assessment. Papers must not have been pre-published and may not be offered for publication elsewhere while under consideration by Polymer International. The corresponding author must obtain the consent of all the co-authors to the submission of the paper.

Submission of inadequately prepared typescripts will cause delay. Authors should therefore conform closely to the instructions given below.

Critical Reviews

Authors wishing to submit a critical review should first submit an outline proposal to the Journals Manager

Style and layout of papers

Although no absolute limit of length is prescribed for the Journal, papers submitted for publication should be presented as briefly as possible, having regard to the considerations below.

All papers must be written in clear and concise English, using the impersonal form. Authors whose first language is not English must seek advice from a native English speaker. Although unnecessary standardisation is not desired, and due allowance for the type of subject matter must be made, papers submitted to the Journal should adopt the following pattern as far as possible.

Title - This should be concise and explanatory of the purpose of the paper. Where a series of related papers is submitted each individual paper should have the same general heading, followed by a series number and title of the part.

Authors' names - These should include one forename of each author spelt in full.

Address - This should be where the work was carried out. Give the postal address for correspondence as a footnote with an email address.

Keywords - Please provide 4 to 6 keywords.

Abstract - A short abstract (up to 150 words), that draws attention to salient points, and intelligible without reference to the paper itself, should be given at the beginning of the paper.

Introduction - The aim of the investigation should be given and also a brief statement of previous work, annotated with references.

Experimental - The methods and materials used should be clearly stated in sufficient detail to permit the work to be repeated if desired. Only new techniques need be described in detail, but known methods should be described in a single sentence and be referenced adequately.

Results - These should be presented concisely, using tables or illustrations for clarity. Adequate indication of the level of experimental error (particularly on graphs) and the statistical significance of results should be given. The number of illustrations and graphical chemical formulae used must be kept to a minimum. Only in exceptional cases will both tables and graphs derived from the same data be accepted for publication.

Authors should distinguish clearly between main and subsidiary headings.

Discussion - In general, the discussion and interpretation of results should follow their presentation, in a separate section.

Conclusions - These should not repeat preceding statements, but extract the most important findings and identify their significance.

Acknowledgements Please keep to a minimum.

References (see below).

Preparation of manuscripts

(a) All manuscripts must be typed double spaced on only one side of the paper and adequate margins should be left. If you are not submitting on-line, please provide four copies (one of which is the 'top copy') of the manuscript, along with an electronic version of the manuscript saved on a PC disk, in a format compatible with MS Word 7 or lower.

(b) Tabulated matter should be clearly set out and the number of columns in each table should be kept as low as possible.

(c) Figures must be supplied either as original drawings on plain white paper, or as high-quality laser or ink jet prints not larger than 20¡Á30 cm. Lettering should be in black ink (avoid using dry transfer, typewritten or handwritten lettering). Use only essential labelling on the figure. Where a key to symbols is required, please include this in the artwork itself, not in the figure legend. On graphs, include labels and units on axes. Labelling on figures must be large enough to be legible after reduction. As a guide, figures are likely to be reduced to around one-half of the original dimensions. Photocopied figures are not acceptable. The authors' names and the paper title should be written at the bottom of each figure, outside the drawing area. Legends and captions should be typed on a separate sheet. Where possible, the illustrations should also be submitted in electronic format, with each figure saved as a separate file, in TIFF or EPS format preferably.

(d) Photographs should be included only when essential. They must be submitted as black-and-white glossy prints of good contrast, labelled on the back using soft pencil. The size should be such that, when the print is reduced to the normal size for reproduction (12¡Á17 cm maximum), the detail is still clear. (It is inevitable that some loss of clarity will occur during the printing.)

For on-line submission, see the guidelines for authors at: http://sci-wiley.manuscriptcentral.com

Please Note: The journal does accept colour figures and photographs, but there is a charge to authors to cover the additional production costs involved in printing colour. Under exceptional circumstances, authors may request that these charges may be waived. This must be provided in writing, at the time of submission, and authors must justify to the editor that inclusion of the figure(s) in colour is essential for interpretation of the results presented.

(e) Symbols, formulae and equations must be written with great care. IUPAC recommendations are to be followed for names of polymers, physico-chemical quantities and units. Summaries of relevant IUPAC recommendations can be found in (i) Compendium of Macromolecular Nomenclature, Blackwell Scientific Publications, 1991 (ii) Quantities, Units and Symbols in Physical Chemistry, Blackwell Scientific Publications, 1988 (iii) Glossary of Basic terms in Polymer Science, Pure and Applied Chemistry, 1996, 68, 2287-2311 and (iv) Nomenclature of Regular Single-Strand Organic Polymers, Pure and Applied Chemistry, 1976, 48, 373. (N.B. A revised version of this last document will be published in 2000.)

A brief summary of some of the more important points is given below.

NAMES OF POLYMERS

Names are either (a) source-based or (b) structure-based.

a) Source-based Names for Homopolymers.

Generally the prefix "poly" is followed by the name of the monomer, e.g. polystyrene, polyacrylonitrile, polyformaldehyde, polypropene. If the name of the monomer consists of more than one word, as with esters, parentheses are employed, e.g. poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(vinyl chloride), poly(phenylene oxide).

b) Source-based Names for Copolymers.

These are similar to names of homopolymers but at least two monomer names are involved with a connective between them to indicate the nature of the structure of the copolymer. The connectives are written in italic script and those recommended are: -co-, -stat-, -ran-, -alt-, -per-, -block- and -graft- for, respectively, unspecified, statistical, random, alternating, periodic, block and graft copolymers. Examples are: poly(styrene-stat-acrylonitrile), poly[(methyl methacrylate)-graft-poly(vinyl chloride)], poly[styrene-alt-(maleic anhydride)], polystyrene-block-polybutadiene.

c) Structure-based Names.

These are based on the concept of a constitutional repeating unit (CRU), a unit which, upon repetition, represents the structure of the macromolecule. Rules for identifying the correct CRU have been formulated, and one of the most important is that the lowest locant for substitution is selected; thus, in the case of polystyrene, the CRU is 1-phenylethene, rather than 2-phenylethene, and the structure-based name of polystyrene is therefore poly(1-phenylethene).

NAMES OF ELEMENTS

The correct spellings of three controversial names of elements are aluminium, caesium, and sulfur.

PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND UNITS

The symbol for a physical quantity should be a single letter of the Latin or Greek alphabet written in italic type. Symbols for units should be in roman (upright) type and should not be followed by a full stop, except at the end of a sentence. Where more than one unit is required, powers should be employed rather than the solidus. There should always be a space between the number representing the value of a physical quantity and the symbol for the unit, as follows.

r = 10 cm S = -154.3 J K-1 mol -1 T = 28 C Yield = 67 %

(Note that, in writing temperatures, a space follows the numerical value but the "¡ã" and the "C" are not separated.)

PREFIXES

Some prefixes should be printed in italic script, some not. There seems to be no ruling with regard to n-, as in n-butane, but conventionally it is not italic. Other prefixes for which there is a definite ruling are listed below.

Italic   sec-, tert-, cis-, trans-, c-, t-, o-, m-, p-.

Where the locus of substitution has to specified, the initial letter, designating the element on which the substitution occurs, is printed in italic script, thus: N,N-dimethylformamide or O-methylglycerol.

Not Italic   iso-, bis-, cyclo-.

(f) References to the literature must be indicated in the text by superior figures in the order in which they appear and a full list must be inserted at the end of the paper. All authors' initials must be given, after the surname. The names of the journals should be abbreviated in accordance with Chemical Abstracts or Biological Abstracts (see detailed list in Chemical Abstract Service Source Index (1907-1974, cumulative, and quarterly supplements, 1975-) and the Biosis List of Serials). If the name of the journal is not in this list, it should be given in full. The full title of the article should be given. The abbreviated title of the journal should be in italic, followed by the volume number in bold, and then the range of pages and the year. When books are mentioned in the References, the order should be author(s), initials, title, volume number, edition, editors, publisher, place of publication, range of pages and year.

(g) Accepted common names of substances should be used wherever possible; trade names, where used, should be indicated and acknowledged as such; ® is usually adequate for this.

Permission Grants

If the manuscript contains extracts, including illustrations, from other copyright works (including material from on-line or intranet sources) it is the author's responsibility to obtain written permission from the owners of the publishing rights to reproduce such extracts using the Wiley Permission Request Form. Permission grants should be submitted with the manuscript.

Bioethics

Authors submitting a manuscript containing in vivo animal work should submit details for all relevant Ethics Committee approval and authorisation (e.g. institute and/or government) and all relevant reference numbers. Details will be printed as a footnote to the paper.

Correspondence and proofs

The address to which correspondence and, for accepted papers, proofs are to be sent must be clearly indicated. The corresponding author should provide contact telephone and fax numbers and, where available, an e-mail address. The author must sign a Copyright Transfer Agreement, transferring copyright in the article to the SCI, and submit the original signed agreement with the paper when presented for publication. A copy of this form is available at the back of the journal, or on our on-line system and the journal homepage. The transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information.

Corrections must be sent to the Publisher within 48 hours of receipt of the proofs. Correction of proofs by authors must be restricted to printer's errors.

There are no page charges

Offprints

Twenty-five offprints of each article are supplied free of charge. Additional offprints can be ordered at current printing prices.


Polymer International Rapid Reports Instructions to Authors

Research results that merit very rapid publication can be submitted to the journal as Rapid Reports. Letters accompanying submissions must state clearly why the paper should be considered for rapid publication. Reports must be written in clear unambiguous English and authors must check their complete manuscript very carefully prior to submission because there will be no opportunity to revise the paper. Proofs will be sent to authors but these must be returned, correcting printing errors only, within 48 hours or the author will be assumed to have made no corrections. The corresponding author must include full contact details including telephone, fax and e-mail (or these details for an alternative contact should the corresponding author be unreachable). The proofs will be checked by the Technical Editor.

In order to maintain rapid publication a Rapid Report must be no more than three printed pages in length, including figures, tables and references. This means that the submitted paper should be less than 1200 words with a maximum of three display items (figures or tables), and a maximum of 25 references. No colour illustrations will be accepted. All figures must be of the highest quality; photocopies will not be accepted. If you are not submiting on-line, please provide two hard copies of a double spaced A4 (or 8.5 x 11 inch) manuscript (including high quality artwork) and an electronic version of the whole paper saved on a PC disk, in a format compatible with MS Word 7 or lower. A signed copyright transfer agreement must also be submitted.

Authors will receive an immediate acknowledgement of receipt of their paper and, subsequently, notification of acceptance or rejection according to the referees' recommendations and the Executive Editorial Board's assessment. Papers must not have been made publically available in print or electronic formats and may not be offered for publication elsewhere whilst under consideration by Polymer International. The corresponding author must obtain written consent of all the co-authors prior to submission of the paper.
