Thermodynamics of Materials

Dear Colleagues,

The study of material properties is relevant in many different fields, such as energy storage and generation, separation processes, biophysical systems, fluid dynamics, water cleaning, atmospheric chemistry, etc. Thermodynamics provides an approach to study all classes of materials. It´s of immense interest for understanding the behavior of material systems from both a fundamental and applied point of view, covering equilibrium and non-equilibrium aspects.

The hope of the Special Issue is to bring together contributors involving the applicability of thermodynamics to the study and description of materials from different points of view. We invite contributions to illustrate this wide utility of thermodynamics.

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. Entropy 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.
