Keywords Authors are asked to provide up to five keywords from the keyword list provided during submission. At least three of the maximum of five keywords assigned to an article must come from this list. Please make the keyword choice as adherent to the content of the manuscript as possible. Keywords are used to aid referee selection, a bad choice of keywords might slow down manuscript processing. Do not include keywords in the main document Keywords can only be chosen from the list provided. Please do not include keywords within the manuscript file. Copyright Transfer Agreement A signed Copyright Transfer Agreement (CTA) is required to be completed after manuscript acceptance. This must be done using the Wiley Author Licensing Service where authors may also indicate whether the article should be OnlineOpen. After acceptance you will receive an email from Author Services with a link to your "My Publication" page and you will be guided through the process in order to select and sign the correct CTA form. Only original papers will be vested in the publisher. No article can be published unless accompanied by a signed publication agreement, which serves as a transfer of copyright from author to publisher. It is the author's responsibility to obtain written permission to reproduce materials that has appeared in another publication. Costs All color figures will be reproduced in full color in the online edition of the journal at no cost to authors. Authors are requested to pay the cost of reproducing color figures in print, and to ensure that the figures which are color online convey the same message when they are in black and white. We welcome suggestions for cover artwork, but if chosen part of the production costs must be paid by the author. If your accepted manuscript has been selected as a candidate for featuring on the journal cover, the editorial office will contact you with details. Peer Review Manuscripts are selected for external peer review based on the importance, novelty, interest of the work to the wider community, and quality of the described research. Manuscripts that are not selected for external peer review are normally returned to the author within five working days. Selected manuscripts describing original research are normally sent to at least two experts for evaluation. Peer review for the Journal of Applied Polymer Science is closed, i.e., reviewer identities are not disclosed to the author except at the reviewer's request and if the editor feels that it is appropriate to do so. The editor will provide a decision as soon as sufficient reviews have been returned. Review and Revision Manuscripts may be accepted for publication without change or with minor changes. If revisions are needed, the manuscript may be sent back to the original reviewer(s) for re-evaluation. If significant additional work is required, the editor may recommend that a new version of the manuscript is submitted at a future date. In all cases, a point-by-point detailed response to the concerns listed by the reviewers should be provided upon resubmission. Appeals Decisions can be reversed on appeal if the editor believes an error was made based on faulty evidence available at the time of the decision. This could include demonstrable factual errors in the reviewer's reports or undetected bias. Editorial decisions can only be reconsidered if additional information is provided that was not already clear from the manuscript and cover letter in the original submission. If an appeal is accepted, the manuscript may be sent to a new appeal reviewer or to one of the original reviewers. A point-by-point response to all reviewer comments should in all cases be provided. The final decision on an appeal is made by the editor. Given the large number of manuscripts we handle, we are unable to consider more than one appeal per manuscript. Manuscript Preparation General Information All text and tables must be formatted as Microsoft Word documents. To avoid publication delays after acceptance, PDF files cannot be accepted for submission. Single file submissions now accepted for review: To make submission easier and more convenient for authors, the editorial office of the Journal of Applied Polymer Science now allows manuscripts to be the submitted, at first submission, as a single Word file, with figures embedded in the text or all at the end of the text in numerical order. The length and style of the manuscript should be in accordance with the kind of manuscript described in Article Types. Title: 15 words or less, avoid common terms such as: synthesis, characterization, properties, effect, study, presentation. These terms do not improve ease of finding of your article on search engines, and thus decrease readership of your published paper. Please also avoid terms such as: novel, new, first. Legends: Please supply legends for all figures and compile these on a separate sheet. Microsoft Word Documents There is no mandatory template for submission. All tables must be saved and submitted as separate files with numbers and titles within the document. Use of the templates found in the author guidelines is recommended for general directions regarding manuscript formating. EndNote journal reference style files for PC and Mac can be downloaded from Citations Literature citations should be formatted to the following guidelines, using the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSI) recommendations for title abbreviations.

Supporting Information Supporting Information (also known as Supplementary Material) is material that accompanies the paper and appears exclusively online. It is always peer reviewed. All the data needed to understand and appraise the paper should be included at submission, and we ask authors to avoid statements such as "data not shown". The Supporting Information will not be copy-edited after acceptance of the manuscript, and therefore authors should ensure that language and terminology are clear and agree with the rest of the paper. In addition: The first page of the Supporting Information should include the title of the manuscript, as well as the complete list of authors. Items included in the Supporting Information should be labeled and referred to as Figure S1, Figure S2, Table S1, Table S2, Video S1, Video S2, Equation S1, Equation S2 and so on. Supporting discussions and experimental procedures should not be numbered. Each item included in Supporting Information should be referred to in the main text. Supporting Figures and Tables should include a brief caption, much as their counterparts in the main paper. Supporting Information should be submitted as a single PDF file if possible. For separate data, video and audio files, see acceptable file formats and maximum dimensions. Graphical Abstract The Journal of Applied Polymer Science is now published with a graphical Table of Contents (TOC). A suggestion for an attractive full color image for the Graphical TOC should be sent, preferably at the time of manuscript submission; it may be specifically designed for the table of contents and it is meant to convey the broader importance of the work and thereby capture the reader's attention. The image will be printed square with sides 2 inches/5 cm; the use of graphs and images consisting of several parts is therefore strongly discouraged. Graphics Preparation All digital art, including figures, schemes, and charts, should be saved as TIFF or EPS files. Submission in formats other than TIFF or EPS is not recommended for compatibility and quality issues. Submission of JPEG, PDF, Excel and PowerPoint files for digital images will result in unsubmission of the article. Images should be flattened prior to submission, i.e., files should not contain layers. Please save all images separately. Image resolution All line art should be either vector files or, if this is not feasible, have a resolution of 1200 dpi. Grayscale and color figures must have a resolution of at least 300 dpi. To ensure that your digital graphics are suitable for print, please use the Rapid Inspector software available at Images should be created or scaled to the size intended for print; no enlargement or reduction should be necessary. Image files should be cropped to remove non-printing borders. Files should be checked carefully for any type, lines, or other elements outside the illustration that are not intended for print. Such elements should be removed before submission. Image orientation should be the same as intended for print. Chemical structures Chemical structures and reaction schemes should be drawn with an appropriate drawing program. The most suitable settings that should be used with ChemDraw are listed below. The settings of other programs should be adjusted similarly. All files must be saved as TIFF or EPS files and should not be submitted in the native application format. The most suitable settings for ChemDraw are: 1. Drawing settings: Chain angle: 120° Bond spacing: 18% of width Fixed length: 14.4 pt (0.508 cm, 0.2 in.) Bold width: 2.0 pt (0.071 cm, 0.0278 in.) Line width: 0.6 pt (0.021 cm, 0.0084 in.) Margin width: 1.6 pt (0.056 cm, 0.0222 in.) Hash spacing: 2.5 pt (0.088 cm, 0.0347 in.) 2. Text settings: Font: Arial (PC) or Helvetica (Mac) Size: 10 pt 3.
