Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Corrosion inhibitors are substances that are used to slow down or prevent the degradation of materials caused by corrosion. Corrosion inhibitors work by forming a protective barrier on the surface of the metal, thus reducing the rate of corrosion.
The aim of this issue is to consolidate recent findings related to corrosion and the deterioration of materials and to give the opportunity to researchers to publish their latest results on understanding or solving the corrosion problems of materials using corrosion inhibitors complemented by theoretical approaches. We invite high-quality original papers and critical reviews.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- Corrosion fundamentals;
- Corrosion mechanisms;
- Industrial processes;
- Corrosion inhibition;
- Corrosion monitoring techniques;
- Surface characterization;
- Theoretical approaches.

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.
