Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The newly developed high-entropy alloys (HEAs) are characterized by their special compositions containing multiprincipal elements in equal or near-equal molar ratios. These alloys have drawn significant attention and opened new exciting research areas with a high intrinsic degree of freedom for designing materials with exceptional properties. For example, the equiatomic CrMnFeCoNi with single face-centered cubic solid-solution phase displays strongly temperature-dependent strength and ductility with only a small strain-rate dependence. Today, HEAs are expected to be the most promising candidates to achieve a long-expected breakthrough in a series of technological sectors. This Special Issue aims to highlight the most recent scientific and technological advances in HEAs. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to (i) combinatorial and high-throughput design of high-performance HEAs; (ii) structural evolution and property description under various pressure, temperature, and magnetic-field conditions; (iii) relevant computational and experimental methods in the field of magnetism; and (iv) magnetocaloric effect near room temperature in HEAs. Research articles, short communications, and reviews are all welcome.

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. Magnetochemistry 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 2700 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.
