FAQ

What fields of chemistry do you edit?

We edit all chemistry subdisciplines: organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, materials chemistry, catalysis, polymer chemistry, and chemical engineering. If your paper involves chemistry research, we can help.

Do you work with non-chemistry fields?

Chemistry focus; interdisciplinary work with a chemistry component is welcome.

Do you do translation?

No—English editing only (for already-translated or English-written manuscripts).

Do you edit for non-native English speakers?

Yes! Most of our clients are ESL (English as a Second Language) researchers from China, South Korea, Japan, and other countries. We specialize in improving clarity and natural English flow while preserving your scientific meaning and voice.

What file formats do you accept?

Word (.docx) preferred; Google Docs and LaTeX (as .docx export) supported.

How do I pay?

After you accept your quote, we'll send you a secure payment link. You can pay via international bank transfer (Wise), Alipay, WeChat Pay, or PayPal. We accept EUR, USD, and CNY. For new clients, we request 50% upfront and 50% upon delivery. We provide official invoices for university reimbursement or purchase orders.

Where are you based and is my data secure?

We are based in the European Union (Greece) and operate under strict GDPR data protection regulations. All manuscript files are stored on EU servers with encrypted transmission. We provide NDAs on request and never share your work with third parties.

How do you ensure confidentiality?

NDA available upon request; GDPR-compliant handling; no sharing with third parties.

Which journals do you support?

ACS and RSC families, plus interdisciplinary chemistry journals (e.g., JACS, Angewandte, ChemComm, JOC, ACS Catalysis).

Can you guarantee journal acceptance?

No editor can guarantee acceptance, as that depends on your research quality, methodology, and journal fit. However, we ensure your manuscript meets professional English standards and proper journal formatting, which significantly improves your chances of passing initial editorial screening and going to peer review.

What if I need revisions?

Standard includes minor clarifications; Premium includes one free re-edit within 12 months for the same manuscript.
