Corresponding author should include full address, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address the manuscript.Names of all co-authors should be clearly mentioned along with corresponding author details.
Research Article
Research articles are articles written based on the empirical/secondary data collected using a clearly defined research methodology, where conclusion/s is drawn from the analysis of the data collected.The information must be based on original research within the field of Polymer Science. Article/s should provide a critical description or analysis of the data presented while adding new and rapidly evolving areas in the field.Abstract should be there with minimum 500 words containing important keywords.
Research articles must contain:
The no. of words for the research article should be 1500 with minimum 10 references.
Review Article
Review articles are written based on secondary data that is falling in line with the theme of the journal. They should be brief, yet critical discussions on a specific aspect of the subject concerned. Reviews generally start with the statement of the problem with a brief abstract of minimum 500 words along with keywords.

It should summarize the topic with a conclusion.The no. of words for the review article should be 2000 with minimum 10 references.
Commentary
Commentaries are opinion articles written mostly by the veteran and experienced writers on a specific development, recent innovation or research findings that fall in line with the theme of the journal. They are very brief articles with the title and abstract that provides the gist of the topic to be discussed, with few key words. It straight away states the problems and provides a thorough analysis with the help of the illustrations, graphs and tables if necessary. It summarizes the topic with a brief conclusion, citing the references at the end.
Case Study
Case studies should be written with a view to add additional information to the investigative research/cases that advances in the field of journal..It should add value to the main content/article submitted, by providing key insights about the core area. Case reports must be brief and follow a clear format such as Cases and Methods Section (That describe the nature of the clinical issue and the methodology adopt to address it), discussion section that analyzes the case and a Conclusion section that sums up the entire case.
Editorials
Editorials are the commentaries on a currently published article/issue on the topic related to journal.

Figures
The preferred file formats for figures are jpg, jpeg, png. It can be submitted with in the article or in separate word along with figure caption.Figure legends should be typed in numerical order in the whole article.
Tables and Equations as Graphics:
If equations cannot be encoded in MathML, submit them in TIFF or EPS format as discrete files (i.e., a file containing only the data for one equation). Only when tables cannot be encoded as XML/SGML they can be submitted as graphics. If this method is used, it is critical that the font size in all equations and tables is consistent and legible throughout all submissions.

Supplementary Information
Discrete items of the Supplementary Information (for example, figures, tables) can be send along with the article mentioned in different word or document.
Proofs and Reprints
Electronic proofs will be sent as an e-mail attachment to the corresponding author as a PDF file. Page proofs are considered to be the final version of the manuscript. With the exception of typographical or minor clerical errors, no changes will be made in the manuscript at the proof stage.
