Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The prevention of surface damage and reduction frictional loses will create a more environmentally friendly planet and improve economic development. The durability of materials and suitable COF are demanded by the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries. Proper wear mechanisms analysis including adhesive wear, abrasive wear, fatigue(cracks, spalling), corrosion, erosion, seizure, etc. is the key factor to enhance tribology behavior.
We are pleased to invite you to submit papers related to the wear, corrosion, and high-temperature resistance of steels/alloys/composites/coatings.
For this Special Issue, the scope will serve as a forum for papers related to the following concepts:
- Theoretical and experimental research, which relates wear, high-temperature resistance, and corrosion of different types of materials such as steels, alloys composites, and coatings.
- Recent tribological developments of various steels, alloys composites, and coatings.
- Multi-coating processes, including but not limited to methods such as thermal spray, laser/electric plasma, CVD, etc.
- High-temperature sliding conditions.
- Simulation, computer modeling to predict wear or other degradation mechanisms in different test conditions.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Coatings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
