advmat-writing-style
Use when polishing the prose of an Advanced Materials manuscript for Wiley house style, concision, precise materials nomenclature and units, and readability across materials subfields. Polishes language; does not restructure the advance or manage the length budget.

# Advanced Materials Writing Style (advmat-writing-style)
## When to trigger
- Prose is wordy, hedged, or dense with un-glossed jargon
- Materials nomenclature, chemical formulae, or units are inconsistent
- A reader from a neighboring materials subfield would stumble on the opening
- The draft narrates the experiment chronologically instead of arguing the advance
- You are in late polish, after the science, characterization, and figures are stable
## Wiley / Adv. Mater. house-style essentials
- **Concision serves impact.** Adv. Mater. prizes a crisp, high-signal narrative; every sentence should advance the structure → property → function argument.
- **Argue, don't log.** Write "the doping raises carrier density, which lifts conductivity to X" — not "first we synthesized, then we measured, then we observed."
