One of the leading English-language polymer journals in China, Chinese Journal of Polymer Science (CJPS) is edited by a distinguished Editorial Board headed by Professor Fo-song Wang, and supported by an International Advisory Board of accomplished polymer scientists from all over the world. CJPS is a monthly peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the timely publication of original research ideas and results in polymer science. The contents include research papers, feature articles, rapid communications and notes. CJPS reflects the most recent achievements obtained in various laboratories in China, and also includes papers submitted by scientists from the international community. Chinese Journal of Polymer Science was first published in 1983 under the title Polymer Communications, and has been known by its current name since 1985. It is sponsored by the Chinese Chemical Society and the Institute of Chemistry, of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The main aim of the journal is to publish scientific work on the role of molecular asymmetry in both biologically active and non-biologically active molecules in respect to their pharmacological, biological, and chemical properties. Drugs, pesticides, and other xenobiotics will be a major interest. Papers on the chemistry (physiochemical, preparative synthetic, and analytical), pharmacology, clinical pharmacology, toxicology, and other biological aspects of chiral molecules will be published. Among the topics to be covered are stereospecific synthesis, stereoselective analysis, preparative separation of chiral molecules, the influence of chirality on pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, protein binding, biotransformation, etc.), the influence of chirality on pharmacodynamics (drug-receptor interactions, pharmacological and toxicological activity), and the influence of chirality on clinical pharmacology (therapeutic index and response, bioavailability, adverse drug reactions, drug-drug interactions). Papers will also be published on regulatory and legal aspects in the development, testing, and marketing of chiral compounds. In addition to original research papers, the journal will publish brief reviews, short communications, and conference reports. Book reviews will also appear.

The journal publishes scientific developments and applications in the field of coal beneficiation and preparation for coking, coking processes, design of coking ovens and equipment, by-product recovery, automation of technological processes, ecology and economics.

Colloid and Polymer Science - a leading international journal of longstanding tradition - is devoted to colloid and polymer science and its interdisciplinary interactions. As such, it responds to a demand which has lost none of its actuality as revealed in the trends of contemporary materials science. To enable an effective and fast dissemination of scientific manuscripts, four categories of contributions are presented:- Invited review articles
- Perspectives
- Original contributions
- Short communications
The latter will be published with high priority, at least within two weeks after acceptance of the manuscript. (The usual time between acceptance and publishing OnlineFirst is typically three weeks.) With this immediacy, Colloid and Polymer Science serves as a reliable partner for an effective distribution of scientific results.

Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects is an international journal devoted to the science underlying applications of colloids and interfacial phenomena.The journal aims at publishing high quality research papers featuring new materials or new insights into the role of colloid and interface science in (for example) food, energy, minerals processing, pharmaceuticals or the environment.Criteria for publication in Colloids and Surfaces A are novelty, quality and current interest. Manuscripts which only make routine use of or minor extensions to well established methodologies (e.g. fitting adsorption data to a Langmuir or Freundlich isotherm) are not appropriate for the journal.For online article submission please go to: http://ees.elsevier.com/colsuaBenefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

To ensure a smooth and rapid refereeing process, please submit your article to the Editor related to the topic of your research (you can select the correct editor in the drop down menu in our online submission system: http://ees.elsevier.com/colsub):John Brash•Interactions of biomolecules (proteins, enzymes, peptides, polysaccharides, DNA) at the solid-solution and air-solution interfaces;•Surface/interfacial interactions of tissue and blood; Biomaterials development and interfacial properties;•Drug delivery/controlled releaseHenk Busscher•Physico-chemical mechanisms of microbial adhesion, biofilm formation and tissue cell interaction to surfaces•Microbial adhesion and biofilm formation•Role of surface characteristics, surface modification and protein adsorption on microbial adhesion and biofilm formation•Physico-chemical mechanisms providing biolubrication to surfacesHong Chen•Surface modification including structured surfaces;•Biocompatible materials;•Anti-fouling materials;•Bio-detection/bio-imaging materials;•Interactions of biomolecules and cells at interfaces.Dganit Danino•Self-assembly and molecular assemblies (proteins, polymers, peptides, surfactants)•Structure of biological fluids•Drug delivery vehicles at nano and meso scales•1D structures - fibrils, ribbons, nanotubes•Milk proteinsSubmissions that: (1) deal solely with biological phenomena and do not describe the physico-chemical or colloid-chemical background and/or mechanism of the phenomena, and (2) deal solely with colloid/interfacial phenomena and do not have appropriate biological content or relevance, are outside the scope of the journal and will not be considered for publication.The journal publishes regular research papers, reviews, short communications and invited perspective articles, called BioInterface Perspectives. The BioInterface Perspective provide researchers the opportunity to review their own work, as well as provide insight into the work of others that inspired and influenced the author. Regular articles should have a maximum total length of 6,000 words. In addition, a (combined) maximum of 8 normal-sized figures and/or tables is allowed (so for instance 3 tables and 5 figures). For multiple-panel figures each set of two panels equates to one figure. Short communications should not exceed half of the above. It is required to give on the article cover page a short statistical summary of the article listing the total number of words and tables/figures.
