Do manuscripts need to be formatted? This is my first submission and I couldn't find a template in the author guidelines.

Overall, the process was quite fast. The reviewers asked very professional questions, which were very helpful in improving the quality of the manuscript.

Angew submission was rejected without review, attempted to transfer to Small but was also rejected. Tried to argue but it didn't work, so transferred to Macromolecules instead.

The editorial processing speed is very fast, usually processed the same day or the next day, but the reviewers have longer processing times. Both the editor and reviewers are very meticulous.

Do submission requirements include uploading original data? Are there any specific format requirements?

May I ask if the submission requires uploading the original data?

Your paper has been submitted for review, so we are waiting for the reviewer's comments. You should hear back soon. My paper has been almost a month now, but I am still not sure if it has been submitted for review.

We submitted our paper on June 26th, and now it's July 15th, which is already 19 days, and it is still in peer review.

On July 2nd, the submission showed "Your manuscript has been assigned to an Associate Editor (Prof. Marc Hillmyer) for further evaluation." It has been 11 days since then and the status has not changed. This is my first time submitting to this journal, so I would like to ask how many days it usually takes to determine whether it will be sent for review or rejected? Thank you.

What's going on with the large molecules, they have been falling all the time, they are about to fall below IF5 if we don't pay attention. How did these guys edit, if they can't do it, let the Chinese take over, I guarantee they can reach 10 points in just one year.

The ACS Publishing House system submission is under review. There is a detailed status in the upper right corner. The subsequent process involves assigning a deputy editor and then sending it for review.

Submitted on 9.26, the status changed directly to "under review". I have never submitted to an ACS journal before. Can you please explain what is happening?

Submitted on December 17th, I was originally worried that the editor would not have time before Christmas. Fortunately, the editor was efficient and assigned reviewers before Christmas. They provided their feedback after three weeks, and both comments required minor revisions. It took me three weeks to respond to the feedback, but it was quickly accepted. The article will be published in early March, which is perfect for the fund review.

Previously, the review speed of Macromolecules was very fast, but this time it took me three months from submission to acceptance. Here is the submission process:

05/13 Submission
05/15 Under review. This step had a quick response.
The review process was relatively slow, possibly due to the difficulty in finding reviewers during the pandemic. 06/27 Received two acceptance or minor revision suggestions and one major revision suggestion.
07/07 Re-submission.
The second round of review was also slow, possibly because the reviewer for the major revision was delaying. It took one month before 08/06 when the article was accepted.
The entire cycle was a long and anxious wait, but I am happy that it was accepted. Although the impact factor of Macromolecules is not very high, it is highly influential in the field of polymer science and is in the top tier journal. I am very satisfied. Overall, the efficiency of ACS publication is good, much better than RSC.

Hello, I want to ask how you can see the status of the review? As soon as I submit my article, it shows "under review". However, when I click on "instruction & forms", I don't see any information about the status of my submission to this journal. There is only information about a previous article that was rejected by another journal and transferred.
