Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As we celebrate the 16th anniversary of MDPI, our mission remains steadfast: to support scholars and their work. Reflecting on a successful 2023, we are proud that over 95% of submitting authors rated their experience with MDPI as excellent or good. This achievement stems from our commitment to understanding researchers' needs.
- Efficiency: We respect your time. With the assistance of editors and reviewers, a first decision is provided within three weeks, and accepted papers are published in under a week.
- Accessibility: We facilitate easy sharing. All content is published in open access under a Creative Commons License, allowing free distribution and reuse with proper attribution.
We invite you to submit your paper to our Special Issue on the manufacturing and properties of silicon carbide (SiC) composites. Alongside many years of extensive research, SiC remains one of the most popular and widely used ceramic materials globally. Advances in manufacturing technologies have significantly enhanced the ability to control the microstructure of these composites, subsequently improving their properties. However, there is still ample opportunity for further advancements and innovations in this field. We encourage you to contribute to the consolidation and expansion of knowledge on silicon carbide composites by submitting your research findings, whether in the form of original articles or comprehensive reviews, to this Special Issue of MDPI Materials Journal.

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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
