Congratulations, may I ask if the revision needs to follow the journal format (double-column), or is a regular Word version sufficient?

What question did XPS ask?

hxzhicheng 2022-11-14

Delivered the manuscript on September 22nd. Received the reviewers' comments on October 16th, with a total of 8 points from two reviewers. They requested major revisions and provided a 20-day deadline for modifications. Returned the revised manuscript on November 2nd. Accepted on November 13th.

The total duration is three months, neither fast nor slow. The successful completion of the master's stage in the major zone one is also considered satisfactory. Thanks to Professor Herbert M. Urbassek for editing.

Does the submission only require one person's email? The supervisor didn't ask for my email.

阿杨_1202 2022-11-08

In my previous submission, I changed the date during the "under review" stage. It should be the date when finding a reviewer or the date when the reviewer agrees to review.

chimianbujiacong 2022-11-08

May I ask how to track it? I noticed that the "under review" time has changed several times in the submission system. What does this mean?

chimianbujiacong 2022-11-08

Wow, so fast? I submitted on 10.12, and it went through several changes of "under review" (what does this mean?), and now it is still under review.

薛定谔的布偶猫 2022-11-07

Submitted at the beginning of August,
Revised on August 22nd,
Returned on September 10th,
On September 22nd, reviewers 1 and 2 accepted, reviewer 3 rejected, editor sought reviewer 4 for minor revisions,
Returned on October 2nd,
On October 18th, delayed by reviewer 3 for two weeks, continued to find faults, reviewer 4 accepted,
On October 19th, not revised, sent an email to battle reviewer 3,
Directly accepted on October 22nd.

Overall, it went quite smoothly. It would have been faster without reviewer 3, who gave misguided advice in an area they didn't understand. I refuted them with over 20 references and they still claimed there were errors. It's really frustrating.
Overall, the journal is still good. I'm also happy that it recently moved up to a top-tier category.

Excuse me, everyone, are there any recommendations for articles in the first-tier category between CEJ and ASS in the field of energy direction?

10.23投稿 translates to "Submitted on October 23rd."

These journals are actually not much different, each having its own advantages. Of course, in terms of impact factor, journals like Small and Carbon have a greater advantage. In terms of overall and some specific sub-disciplines, these journals have influence. The reason why ASS can be listed in a top tier is mainly due to its tremendous influence in the field of membranes. As of now, if the journal can maintain its top-tier status, it is only a matter of time before its impact factor exceeds 10. From the perspective of short-term or long-term investment, the cost-effectiveness of this journal is undoubtedly very high.

The reference format needs to be revised.

GajunRyo 2022-10-27

Updated the status. On October 27, the second review came back with some minor revisions. The first reviewer said it can be published based on the current version. The other two reviewers had a total of two comments, which were easily addressed. They asked me to incorporate the content of the reply letter into the main text.

Wangwant 2022-10-25

Any format is acceptable, just use Word directly.

Four months have passed and there has been no response to the initial review.

中華小萌神 2022-10-23

Hello, I would like to inquire about the submission of the initial draft for ASS. Is there a specific template for submitting? Can it be in Word format? Or is the initial draft submission format not restricted? Thank you.

Admiration, admiration~ The editor who wrote about the direction of metal surface coating is Ewa Nowicka-Ratajczak. Has anyone ever encountered this editor? ?

Posted on July 25th, received on October 21st, and completed the second assignment. It took 3 months. Best wishes!

Chemelec 2022-10-20

This year's second assignment, the review is still very strict. The editor gave minor revisions overall. Although there was no need to supplement the experiments, there were still many theoretical questions raised. The revised version will be accepted within a week. Hope the assignment can continue to improve!
