Carbohydrate Polymers

Journal Title：Carbohydrate Polymers

Carbohydrate Polymers covers the study and exploitation of polymers of monosaccharides which have current or potential application in areas such as bioenergy, bioplastics, biomaterials, nanotechnology, biorefining, drug delivery, food, chemistry, packaging , paper, pharmaceuticals, medicine, oil recovery, textiles and wood.

The role of the well-characterized carbohydrate polymer must be the major proportion of the work reported, not peripheral. At least one named carbohydrate polymer must be cited and be the main focus of the title of the paper, and of the paper itself. Research must be innovative and advance scientific knowledge.

Where a polysaccharide is obtained from a supplier, essential structural information which will affect its behavior in the subsequent work should be given. For example, molecular size/viscosity information, mannuronate/glucoronate ration for alginates, degree of esterification for pectin, degree of deacetylation for chitosan. Editors are unlikely to send papers for formal review with a statement such as "sodium alginate was purchased from XXX Inc." unless additional information is supplied. To be acceptable, the paper must include some characterization of the polysaccharide (if not already known) in addition to the application studied. Purity and monosaccharide composition are essential; some molecular size and linkage information is highly desirable.

碳水化合物聚合物涵蓋單糖聚合物的研究和開發，這些聚合物目前或可能應用于生物能源、生物塑料、生物材料、納米技術、生物精煉、藥物輸送、食品、化學、包裝、紙張、制藥、醫學、采油、紡織品和木材等領域。

已充分表征的碳水化合物聚合物的作用必須是所報告工作的主要部分，而不是次要部分。必須引用至少一種命名的碳水化合物聚合物，并且該聚合物是論文標題和論文本身的重點。研究必須具有創新性并推動科學知識的發展。

如果從供應商處獲得多糖，則應提供將影響其在后續工作中的行為的基本結構信息。例如，分子大小/粘度信息、藻酸鹽的甘露糖醛酸/葡萄糖醛酸比例、果膠的酯化程度、殼聚糖的脫乙酰度。除非提供更多信息，否則編輯不太可能將帶有“海藻酸鈉購自 XXX 公司”之類聲明的論文送交正式審閱。要想被接受，論文必須包括多糖的一些特性（如果尚不清楚）以及所研究的應用。純度和單糖組成是必不可少的；一些分子大小和連接信息是非常理想的。

Carbohydrate Polymers創刊于1981年，由Elsevier Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋化學 - 高分子科學全領域，在行業領域中學術影響力很大，屬于TOP期刊，國際一流期刊，關注度和專業度非常高，所以對原創文章要求創新性很高，過審難度很高，如果您有志于TOP期刊，建議關注此刊。平均審稿速度 約2.2個月 ，影響因子指數10.7，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
