Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) is an exciting and vibrant research field of materials science, and recently the research of HEAs has been widespread world widely. Numerous studies have shown that the high entropy strategy has great potential for developing new materials with properties beyond those of conventional materials based on one principal element or component, by exploring central regions of complex composition space. The topics of interest in this special issue include, but are not limited to, the preparation, properties, and applications of materials containing: Experimental, theoretical, and computational researches of phase diagrams, processing, microstructure characterization, mechanical, physical, chemical, and functional properties of HEMs.

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 2300 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.
