High-Entropy Alloys: Progress and Prospects

Dear Colleagues,

High-entropy alloys are considered promising candidates for various applications due to their superior mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, irradiation resistance, oxidation resistance, wear resistance, catalytic activity, etc. High-entropy alloys have attracted wide attention in recent years; thus, we proposed this Special Issue to summarize the progress and advances of high-entropy alloys. The present Special Issue will focus on the following aspects of high-entropy alloys:

High-entropy alloys for applications in special environments such as marine environments and irradiated environments;

Mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, microstructure evolutions, and deformation mechanisms of high-entropy alloys;

The rational data-driven design of high-entropy alloys with desired microstructures or properties;

Simulation techniques of high-entropy alloys such as the molecular dynamic, phase field, and first principles calculation;

The additive manufacturing of high-entropy alloys, such as the selective laser melting, and the laser cladding.

Other related works or review articles about high-entropy alloys are also encouraged.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Crystals 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 2100 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.
