Template for submission of a Review in English with a Chinese abstract
to Chinese Jouranl of Catalysis
This is the template for submission of a Review to Chinese Jouranl of Catalysis. Reviews deal with topics of current
interest in any of the areas covered by Chinese Journal of Catalysis. Reviews are surveys, with entire, systematic, and
important information, of recent progress in important topics of catalysis. Rather than an assemblage of detailed information
or a complete literature survey, a critically selected treatment of the material is desired. Unsolved problems and possible
developments should also be discussed. Authors should have published articles in the field. The references for a Review
should be more than 80.
This Word file uses A4 paper, 12-point font size, 1.5 spacing, and single column. When preparing the paper, type your
manuscript directly into the template by selecting the text in black font of this template that you want to replace and typing
your manuscript while using the format in red font as is. Keep the layout of the text clear and simple. All sections of the
paper must be presented in a clear and concise manner. Spelling may be British or American English but consistency should
be maintained within a manuscript. All figures and tables are placed in the manuscript file. Number all pages consecutively.
Symbols, special characters, molecular formulae, simple mathematical formulae, and chemical reactions used within
lines of text should be typed as normal text using the Word’s fonts as far as is possible and must not be small graphics
imported from other programs.
All graphics (including chemical structures) should be produced in the actual size they are to appear in the printed
journal. After the manuscrip is accepted, the authors are required to provide the original documents of the graphics such as
ppt, cdx, and psd files saved by the program the graphics were originally drawn in, and thus we can edit.
The title (use all lowercase letters) should be a brief, accurate description of the
emphasis and content of the paper and should not contain abbreviations
ZHANG San a, LI Si b,*, WANG Xiaowu a,b,#, John R. SMITH b (Use all capital letters for the family names
to avoid ambiguity. The given name (not the initial), initial of the middle name, and the last name should be
given for complete identification.)

Affiliation (Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including affiliation, city and zip code,
province, and country, e.g., Dalian 110623, Liaoning, China)
b

Abstract: A concise, factual, and detailed abstract of 100–200 words is required for all manuscripts. This
should state the research purpose, main methods, principal results, and major conclusions. Important
experimental data such as catalyst activity should be presented if necessary. Avoid the use of abbreviations
in abstracts.
Key words: Key word 1; Key word 2; Key word 3; Key word 4; Key word 5 (List 5–8 key words that best
describe the nature of the research, avoiding plural terms, abbreviations, molecular formula, and multiple
concepts (avoid, for example, "and", "of"). The first letter of the first word for each key word should be
capitalized. Separate the key words by two spaces. These key words will be used for indexing purposes.)

1. Introduction
The introduction states the background of the study, its relation to previous work in the field, the
questions to be answered, and the methods adopted, to allow a reader to understand and evaluate the results
of the present work. Relevant previous work by the same authors should be referenced. Avoid a detailed
literature survey or a summary of the results.
2. Section heading
2.1.
Section heading
Provide sufficient detail to enable others to repeat the experiments. Methods already published should
be indicated by a reference, but new and modified experimental procedures should be described in detail.
Give the compositions of catalysts clearly.
2.2.
Section heading
All measurements should be expressed in the international system of units (SI). Other quantities should
be converted into SI units. Italicize symbols of physical quantities, such as ABET (BET surface area), c
(concentration), p (pressure), t (temperature or time), T (temperature), Y (yield), S (selectivity), X(CH4)
(conversion of CH4), Eb (binding energy), δ (chemical shift), m/m (mass ratio), V/V (volume ratio), n/n
(molar ratio), w (mass fraction), φ (volume fraction), and x (molar fraction), but not their units.
Temperature units should be presented as either °C or K in the same paper. Leave a single space
between the number and the unit of a value, e.g., 20 ml. Each abbreviation must be defined the first time it is
used in the abstract and again in the body of the manuscript.
Some symbols and characters frequently used in this journal are listed as follows. Please use the copy
of them in your manuscript. ( )

3.1.
Section heading
The results should be given clearly and concisely, and the discussion should explore the significance of
the results of the work. Give results in a logical sequence in the text, tables, and illustrations. Do not repeat
in the text all the data in the tables or illustrations.
3.1.1.
Section heading
Number references in the order they appear in the text. Ensure that each reference cited in the text is
present in the reference list (and vice versa). Numerals for the references in the text are given in square
brackets such as [1–3], [4,5], and [3,6–9] (all not superscript and put a space before the bracket). Each
reference should be separately numerically numbered, without the use of alphabetical suffixes. Personal
communications, unpublished materials, and works that have not yet been accepted for publication are not
recommended as references.
3.2.
Section heading
All figures and tables must be referenced in the text and placed in the text near the point of the first
mention. Number them consecutively with Arabic numerals. The captions should be understandable without
reference to the text. The same data should not be presented in more than one figure or in both a figure and a
table.
In the initial manuscript submission, the figures and tables must be of sufficient quality for peer review.
If the manuscript is accepted, all figures and tables, and their titles and legends will be re-created or edited
according to the Journal style prior to publication. For this purpose, authors will be asked to provide original
documents (including experimental data) of the figures saved by the program the graphic was originally
drawn in. For printing, the minimum resolution for a black and white line art, grayscale art, and color art is
1200, 600, and 600 dpi, respectively.
The maximum width of a single-column graphic and a double-column graphic can be set at ≤ 8.4 cm
and ≤ 17.5 cm, respectively. The use of single-column graphics is suggested.

Graphical Abstract
Authors are required to submit a graphical abstract at the time the paper is first submitted. The graphical abstract is
meant to provide the reader the essence of the work and thereby capture the reader’s attention. The graphical abstract
includes title of the manuscript, Author’s name, Author’s affiliation (only the name of the university or institute), a color
graphic, and a description of less than 35 words. The description states the findings and the significance of the research in
the paper and should not be the same as the abstract in the manuscript. The graphical abstract should be included at the end
of the English manuscript file.
The color picture in the graphical abstract can be a newly designed key model, structure, reaction, equation, concept, or
theorem, etc., or an ingenious representation that provides the reader with a strong idea of the content of the article. The
graphic should be a maximum size of 4–6 cm high and 6–15 cm wide. After the manuscrip is accepted, the author is
required to provide the original document of the graphic such as ppt, cdx, and psd files saved by the program the graphic
was originally drawn in, thus we can edit.
More examples of graphical abstracts can be found at our website http://www.chxb.cn.
The manuscript title
San Zhang, Si Li *, Xiaowu Wang *, John R. Smith (Use asterisks to identify every corresponding author,
and superscript affiliation labels are not needed.)
Affiliation (Only the name of the university or institute is needed, e.g., Dalian University of Technology);
Affiliation
One or two sentences (less than 35 words) that clearly state the findings and the significance of the research
in the paper are needed. (e.g., Highly crystallized phase-pure zeolite A is synthesized from low-grade
bauxite by alkali fusion activation and hydrothermal reaction, which can be used as a high-capacity
cadmium ion exchanger.)
