Contributions are accepted on the understanding that the authors have obtained the necessary authority for publication. Submission of an article must be accompanied by a statement that the article is original and unpublished and is not being considered for publication elsewhere. Upon acceptance of an article by the Journal, the author(s) will be asked to transfer the copyright of the article to the Publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information.
Authors are reminded that delays in publication may occur if the instructions for submission and disk and manuscript preparation are not strictly followed. Authors are strongly recommended to submit disks to aid rapid processing. To facilitate communication, authors are requested to provide their current e-mail address, telephone and fax number.
There are no page charges
Preparation of manuscripts on disk
Main Text
Articles prepared using any of the more popular word-processing packages are acceptable but please note the following points.
- Submissions must be made on a double-density or high-density 3.5" disk.
- The disk format, word-processor format, file name(s) and the title and authors of the article must be indicated on the disk.
- The disk must always be accompanied by a hard-copy version of the article, and the content of the two should be identical.
- The disk text must be the same as that of the final refereed, revised manuscript.
- Disks formatted for either IBM PC compatibles or Apple Macintosh are preferred. If you can provide either of these, our preference is for the former.
- The article must be saved in the native format of the word processor used, e.g. WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, etc.
- Although most popular word processor file formats are acceptable, we cannot guarantee the usability of all formats. If the disk you send us proves to be unusable, we will publish your article from the hard copy.
- Please do not send ASCII files as relevant data may be lost.
- There is no need to spend time formatting your article so that the printout is visually attractive (e.g. by making headings bold), as most formatting instructions will be removed upon processing.
- Leave a blank line between each paragraph and between each entry in the list of bibliographic references.
- Tables should preferably be placed in the same electronic file as the text. Authors should consult a recent issue of the Journal for table layout.
Graphics
General
Although there are still a large number of technical difficulties to overcome, we are processing graphic files in a growing number of cases. Both scanned and computer-generated illustrations, either in colour or black and white are acceptable.
Requirements
The following requirements are to be met:
A hard copy of the manuscript should be sent in all cases. Since we cannot a priori guarantee the usability of your graphic file(s), hard copies of all illustrations should accompany the accepted printout of the manuscript in all cases. One set should be in a publishable condition.
Disks: Files should preferably be submitted on disk, either IBM or Macintosh.
Format: TIFF or EPS files are preferred. TIFF files should preferably be compressed, but only LZW (Macintosh) compression is acceptable. Please note that corrections in EPS figures are only possible if they have been prepared with Adobe Illustrator 3.0 or higher versions. The usability of other formats is to a large extent dependent on the information you supply us with concerning the soft- and hardware used. It is a good idea to put the relevant information in the header of the file.
Resolution: Drawings made with Adobe Illustrator and Aldus Freehand (Macintosh) and CorelDraw (IBM/DOS) generally give good results. Drawings made in WordPerfect or Word generally have a too low resolution; only if made at a much higher resolution (1016 dpi) can they be used. Files of scanned line drawings are acceptable if done at a minimum of 1016 dpi. For scanned halftone figures a resolution of 300 dpi is sufficient. Scanned figures compressed with JPEG usually give no problems. Please note that scanned figures cannot be enlarged, only reduced.
Manuscript preparation
Language
Papers will be published in English. Authors' manuscripts must be consistent in style, spelling and syntax. Authors in Japan please note that a listing of commercial companies and individuals offering English polishing services, for the checking, correction and improvement of manuscripts (prior to submission) can be obtained from the following address:

Estimation of length
For a rough estimate of the final length of their printed article, authors should count 850 words per full two-column page or four illustrations per page.
Title
Papers should be headed by a concise and informative title. This should be followed by the name(s) of the author(s) and by the name and complete address of the laboratory in which the work was performed. If the address of the author at the time when the paper will appear will be other than that where the work was carried out, this may be stated in a footnote, but footnotes should otherwise be avoided. Recognition for financial support should not be made by a footnote to the title or name of the author but should be included in Acknowledgments at the end of the paper.
Abstract
An abstract of 50-200 words should be included at the beginning of a paper. The abstract should comprise a brief and factual account of the contents and conclusions of the paper as well as an indication of any new information presented and its relevance. Abstracts should be understandable in isolation, and reference to formulae, equations or references that appear in the main text is thus not permissible.
Keywords
A maximum of 6 keywords should be indicated below the abstract to describe the content of the manuscript.
Introduction
A full-length paper should have a short Introduction. This should state the reasons for the work, with brief reference to previous work on the subject.
References
The references should be brought together at the end of the article, and numbered in the order of their appearance in the text. Footnotes should not include bibliographic material, and reference lists should not include material that could more appropriately appear as a footnote. Authors should check whether every reference in the text appears in the list of references and vice versa. Numerals for references are given in square brackets [ ]. In the reference list, journals [1], books [2], edited multi-author books [3] and a specific chapter in an edited book [4] should be cited in accordance with the following examples:
[1] J. Saida, A. Inoue, T. Masumoto, Mater. Sci. Eng. A133 (1991) 771.
[2] E. W. Collings, The Physical Metallurgy of Titanium Alloys, American Society for Metals, Metals Park, OH, 1984, p. 293.
[3] R. F. H. Woodberry, in: G. C. Sih, J. T. Pindera, S. V. Hoa (Eds.), Analytical and Testing Methodologies for Design with Advanced Materials, North Holland, Amsterdam, 1988, p.24.
[4] P. C. Eloff, F. V. Lenel, The effects of mechanical constraints upon the early stages of sintering, in: H. H. Hausner (Ed.), Modern Developments in Powder Metallurgy, vol 4, Plenum, New York, 1971, pp. 291-302.
Each reference should be complete; thus the use of ibid., idem., et al., etc. is not permitted. Abbreviations for the titles of journals should follow the system used by the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index, 1970 edition, and supplements.
References to books should include the following information: title, publisher, town of publication, year of publication and page number. This information should also be given for published proceedings or abstracts of conferences, together with the location and date of the meeting, e.g.
[5] G. Meier, Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on High Temperature Corrosion of Advanced Materials and Coatings, Les Embiez, France, May 22-26, 1989, Elsevier Science Publishers, London, 1989, p. 1.
Tables
Tables should be typed in double spacing on separate sheets and provided with a suitable heading. Tables should be clearly referred to in the text using Arabic numerals. Considerable thought should be given to layout so that the significance of the results can be easily grasped. Each table should have a title which makes the general meaning understandable without reference to the text.
Illustrations
Line drawings and cyclic or aromatic chemical formulae should be in a form suitable for direct reproduction, drawn in black ink on drawing or tracing paper. Alternatively, such illustrations may be supplied as high contrast, black and white glossy photographs. Where magnifications are concerned, it is preferable to indicate the scale by means of a ruled line on the photograph. Figures should be drawn in such a way that they can be reduced to 8.4cm in width (i.e. single column width). In exceptional cases, a reduction to a width of 17.6cm may be allowed subject to the approval of an Editor. All lettering should be prepared such that numbers and capital letters have a height of 1.5-1.8mm after reduction. All illustrations should preferably require the same degree of reduction and be submitted on paper of the same size as, or smaller than, the main text to prevent damage in transit. Legends to illustrations should be typed in sequence on a separate page or pages and be understandable without reference to the text.
Colour illustrations
Illustrations can be printed in colour when they are judged by the Editor to be essential to the presentation. The publisher and author will each bear part of the extra costs involved. The charge to be passed on to authors of articles containing colour figures is NLG 1380 (approx. US$ 800) for the first page containing colour and NLG 690 (approx. US$ 400) for each additional page containing colour. The dollar price is for guidance only.
Units and nomenclature
IUPAC-IUB nomenclature and use of SI units is preferred. Scientific abbreviations may be used, and special abbreviations should be defined the first time that they occur.

Proofs
Authors will receive proofs, which they are requested to correct and return as soon as possible. No new material may be inserted in the text at the time of proof-reading. A Note added in proof must be dated and the author must have requested and received the Editor's approval.
Offprints
Twenty-five offprints are supplied to authors free of charge. Additional offprints may be ordered at prices shown on the offprint order form. This order form should be returned promptly since the price of offprints ordered after publication is substantially higher.
