Research on Corrosion Behavior of Metallic Material

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the Special Issue, “Research on Corrosion Behavior of Metallic Material”, which will focus on various corrosion processes in metallic materials. The scope of this issue includes, but is not limited to, corrosion phenomena at high temperature, exposure to body fluid, immersion, and fog in an aggressive environment. Additionally, the influence of the metallic material fabrication on corrosion behavior will be a key topic in this Special Issue, including laser processing, additive manufacturing, welding, soldering, anodising, and surface treatment. This issue will also feature studies exploring the development of innovative electrochemical techniques to characterize the corrosion, such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, the Mott–Schottky method, and electrochemical noise. Furthermore, research is being conducted on novel corrosion inhibitors, including natural inhibitors and rare-earth inhibitors. In addition, the corrosion model studies will also be considered for this Special Issue. 

Dr. Juan Ignacio Ahuir-Torres
Guest Editor

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.
