Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Alloys of various kinds are widely used in applications where high-temperature and aggressive environments are both present. Regardless of the application, durability is a key factor of success. Research activities are meant to understand the mechanism of degradation in operando of the metal components and its dependence on working parameters such as the environment, temperature, side reactions, contact with other materials, presence of electric or magnetic fields, mechanical stress, and phase changes. It is thus of fundamental importance to discuss the materials selection and the eventual protection strategies applied to enhance correspondence amid application issues and materials science responses.

This Special Issue of Metals will welcome papers regarding all kinds of alloys and practical solutions (consolidated, experimental and theoretical) regarding:

  • High-temperature corrosion, oxidation;
  • Protection of metal supports;
  • Accelerated tests;
  • Modeling (both descriptive and predictive);
  • Interaction between microstructural features and corrosion behavior;
  • Failure risk assessment.

It is our pleasure to invite you to submit manuscripts to this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all welcome.

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.

The fouling behavior of a steam generator (SG) tube was investigated at different positions after 500 h of immersion in high-temperature water. A triple-layer structure of fouling appeared at both the crevice position and the free span position, namely, the large, dispersedly distributed deposition layer on the top; the small and faceted outer layer; and the relatively continuous inner layer. There was no obvious positional effect on the thickness of the inner layer. However, in the crevice position, the density of the deposited particle and the thickness of the outer layer was much higher than those of the free span position. The tube support plate (TSP) made of 410 stainless steel contributed significantly to the fouling behavior of the SG tube in the crevice between the SG tube and the TSP. Full article

On the High-Temperature Oxidation and Area Specific Resistance of New Commercial Ferritic Stainless Steels

Two commercial ferritic stainless steels (FSSs), referred to as Steel A and Steel B, designed for specific high-temperature applications, were tested in static air for 2000 h at 750 °C to evaluate their potential as base materials for interconnects (ICs) in Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cell stacks (IT-SOFCs). Their oxidation behavior was studied through weight gain and Area Specific Resistance (ASR) measurements. Additionally, the oxide scales developed on their surfaces were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Micro-Raman Spectroscopy (μ-RS), Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The evolution of oxide composition, structure, and electrical conductivity in response to aging was determined. Comparing the results with those on AISI 441 FSS, steels A and B showed a comparable weight gain but higher ASR values that are required by the application. According to the authors, Steel A and B compositions need an adjustment (i.e., a plain substitution of the elements which form insulant oxides or a marginal modification in their content) to form a thermally grown oxide (TGO) with the acceptable ASR level.
