Corrosion and Electrochemical Behaviors of Metals

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, renewed interest in the study of corrosion phenomena and the development of new materials and more resistant coatings has led to significant improvements in both fundamental knowledge and engineering applications in this field.

This Special Issue covers a broad spectrum of recent scientific topics and concepts in the field of corrosion research and electrochemical behavior of metals, providing an excellent opportunity for researchers, academics, and technologists from leading universities, companies, and research centers to present their latest research at the forefront of corrosion knowledge and engineering.

Original papers and critical reviews are awaited in topics such as:

• Electrochemical testing methods for the study of corrosion behavior of advanced engineering materials and coatings;
• Corrosion kinetics, passivity, and localized corrosion;
• Synthesis and characterization of new corrosion resistance materials;
• Newest results in surface coatings and surface modifications;
• Fundamental aspects of interfacial science;
• Mechanisms and methods of corrosion control.

My hope is that this issue will be a valuable reference source for any researcher interested in these areas.

Dr. Antonio Collazo
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. Metals 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 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.
