Notice to Authors of Phosphorus Research Bulletin (PRB)
General Policy
1. General Scope
Phosphorus Research Bulletin focuses on the publication of research papers that investigate
on inorganic phosphates and phosphate-containing materials.
2. Manuscript Type
Phosphorus Research Bulletin publishes the following types of articles: 1) Original Papers, 2) Reviews,
3) Communications, 4) Technical Reports. The author(s) bears full responsibility for the scientific content of his/her article.
1) Original Papers should describe comprehensive investigations with a full analysis of results, thereby leading to clear
and novel conclusions on inorganic phosphates and phosphate-containing materials.
2) Reviews should be in topical areas and discuss the literature in a rigorous and critical manner on inorganic phosphates
and phosphate-containing materials. Reviews should also provide an in-depth and up-to-date critical review of a related topic.
3) Communications are brief scientific reports about new ideas, methods, observations or theories relevant to researches on
inorganic phosphates and phosphate-containing materials. Communications can be up to four printed pages.
4) Technical Reports are the articles including data contributing to development of processing, evaluation, and application of
inorganic phosphates and phosphate-containing materials.
3. Refereeing and Revision
Manuscripts (PDF files) should be addressed to Professor Takahiro Takei,

Instruction for Preparation of the Manuscript
1) Paper and Typing Area
To ensure consistency among different manuscripts, please follow attached instructions carefully. The typing area for the text is 160 mm wide and 242 mm high in 210 mm x 297 mm paper (A4) (Top margin: 25 mm, bottom margin: 30 mm, right margin: 25 mm, and left margin: 25mm, central margin: 8 mm). All manuscript must be in English. Please use Times, Times New Roman, or Symbol font(s). The actual page number will be printed by the publisher. Please number each sheet slightly in the bottom center (outside of the typing area). Article must contain an abstract which is condensation of the information in the paper.
2) Title, Author, Affiliation, Keywords, and Abstract
The paper opener-title, author, affiliation, keywords, and abstract-should be indented and single spaced. The title should be typed from the first line and centered using Times or Times New Roman 12 point Bold Capital Letter. Leave three lines of space and type the author’s full name in upper case using 12 point letter, and e-mail address of corresponding author using 10 point letter. Leave one line and type the author’s affiliation and full address in upper and lower case letters using 10 point letter. Skip two lines, type the word Keywords:, and 3-5 key words covered in your paper using 9 point letter. These keywords shall be used by the publisher to produce a keyword index. Skip two lines, type the word Abstract:, and type a concise abstract of not more than l50 words using 9 point letter. Leave three lines of space below the abstract before beginning the text.
3) Text
Text should be typed in single space using 10 point letter. Some flexibility of presentation will be allowed but authors are urged to arrange the subject matter clearly under such headings as INTRODUCTION, MATERIALS AND METHODS, RESULTS, DISCUSSION, REFERENCES, etc. in capital letter.
4) Figures
Figures should be presented as part of the text, leaving sufficient space so that the caption will not be confused. Type FIGURE 1 in upper case letters and type the caption like a self-contained and place below or beside the figure. Leave one line of space before starting the text.
