Submission Instructions

Acs Applied Bio Materials accepts the following article types. Click on an article type to view submission instructions.

Article

Cover Letter A cover letter must accompany the submission. The cover letter must explain why the manuscript is appropriate for ACS Applied Bio Materials, indicate the application described, describe any Supporting Information or Review-Only Material, and notify the Editor if essential crystal structure data accompany the manuscript.
Abstract An abstract is required for an Article. The abstract must be limited to 300 words. The abstract should be unstructured and summarize the significant results and conclusions.
Manuscript The paper must include a separate Introduction section, and initial submissions must use clearly identified standard sections for reporting original research. The manuscript must include a graphical summary for the table of contents, disclose any use of AI tools in the manuscript, and include safety information in the Experimental Section.
References Literature documentation should be selective rather than exhaustive, particularly when reviews can be cited.
Figures & Tables Figures should be embedded in the text at the point of relevance, and for crystallographic structure reports only data and graphics integral to the discussion should be included in the manuscript file. Each figure and table must have a caption or title understandable without reference to the text.
