Instructions to Authors
Submit an Article
Before submitting an article please visit our Editorial Policy page for a list of topics that may be considered for publication.
You may submit your article by email or by uploading via the Contact form, selecting the category “Article submission”. Acceptable formats include:
- Microsoft Word document (.doc or .docx)
- Rich text format (.rtf)
- Portable document format (PDF)
Please use only plain, bold and italic fonts.
Length and Word Count
- Suggested length for a full–length article is 3000–4000 words (10-12 pages, including Figures, Tables etc.)
- Short articles may be 1000–2000 words (4-6 pages)
- Conference reviews may be 1000–2000 words (4-6 pages)
- Book reviews may be 1000–2000 words (4-6 pages)
Longer or shorter articles or reviews may be considered. A very long paper may be divided into parts and published in subsequent issues; however there are few constraints on length, within reason, so we will normally allow submission of a longer article. We reserve the right to edit or shorten submissions.
Please contact us if you need further guidance.
Language
Johnson Matthey Technology Review is published in English. Submissions may be edited to conform to Johnson Matthey Technology Review’s house style. Johnson Matthey Technology Review follows IUPAC guidelines for scientific terminology and uses SI units.
Non-English speakers should try to have a native English speaker proofread their article before submission, if possible. Alternatively a professional translation service may be used if available. The Editors reserve the right to edit submissions for language and grammar, but it remains the author’s responsibility to ensure that the scientific content is accurate at all times.
If in doubt, contact us for further guidance.
Structure of the Article
Articles and reviews for Johnson Matthey Technology Review should include a title, subtitle, introduction, main body of the article (which may be divided by subheadings) and conclusions. Full-length articles should include a synopsis. All articles and reviews should be supported by Figures and References, and include a short author biography.
Johnson Matthey Technology Review’s readers include specialists in many different disciplines. Therefore the article should be written to be understood by the non-specialist scientifically educated reader.
The title should be clear and concise, between 5–15 words. It should be descriptive of the work that is discussed in the article. Avoid abbreviations in titles, especially if they are uncommon or very specialised. Conference and book reviews should be given the title of the conference or book reviewed.
A subtitle may be added to expand on the title or emphasise a point.
Each paper should begin with a synopsis (or abstract) of approximately 50–200 words, which should summarise the main points and aim of the article.
The introduction should give a short review or overview of the topic or its background, with appropriate References, especially if the topic is likely to be unfamiliar to many non-specialist readers. Include a statement of the purpose or aim of the research or of the topic being reviewed and of its practical application, where necessary. If a review is selective, indicate the criteria used for selection.
The main body of the article should describe the work and its significant outcomes or results. You may include a brief note of the methods or procedures that have been used. Please note however that we do not normally publish detailed descriptions of experimental procedures, these should be Referenced elsewhere where possible. Results should be presented as concisely as possible, with the use of Tables where appropriate. Ensure that all material included is appropriate, timely and relevant to the aim or purpose of the article.
The text may be divided into sections using subheadings. Subheadings may optionally be numbered. No more than two levels of subheadings should be used.
A summary or conclusions should be added at the end of the article. You may indicate the relevance of the work and its relationship to future research with special emphasis on any present or future industrial applications.
The article should be fully illustrated by Figures, in colour where appropriate. These can include photographs, chemical structures, reactions, graphs, diagrams, Schemes, etc.
The article must be fully supported by References. These should be collected at the end of the article and numbered consecutively in order of citation in the text. Please do not add any Footnotes or Endnotes, other than your References, except in Tables.
A Glossary may be useful if there are a lot of very specialised or technical terms.
Acknowledgements may be made at the end of the article.
For each author, please provide a short (~50 words) professional biography, with special emphasis on their research interests. Please also provide a photograph of each author.
For further guidance, please refer to our website for examples of published articles, or contact us.
