Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The advancement of magnetic materials has effectively promoted the development of modern society. By definition, magnetic materials refer to materials with ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic ordering. In a broad sense, they also include weak magnetic and antiferromagnetic materials that can provide magnetism and magnetic effects. Metallic magnetic materials is one of the most important categories of magnetic materials. They are widely used as soft magnets, hard magnets, and magnetic recordings. With special properties, they can also work as magnetostrictive materials, magnetocaloric materials, magnetic microwave-absorbing materials, etc. Since their disciovery, metallic magnetic materials have found increasing applications in motors, mechanical equipment, electronic devices, information recording, sensors, etc. The development of AI, 5G, consumer electronics, biomedicine, aerospace technology, and military industry lead to higher requirements for various types of magnetic materials, which have attrcted more and more researchers into this field in recent years.
This Special Issue is focused on the fabrication, microstructure, properties, and applications of various metallic magnetic materials, including but not limited to hard magnetic materials, soft magnetic materials, magnetocaloric materials, magnetostrictive materials, magnetoresistance materials, and magnetoelectric materials. Discussions of the preparation of metallic magnetic materials by means of traditional approaches, including casting, sintering, bonding, and plastic forming, and novel techniques, such as additive manufacturing and nanofabrication, are all welcome. We also encourage submissions related to the magnetic simulations of metallic magnetic materials by means of first principles, micromagnetic modelling, phase field calculation, etc. Work on novel magnetic structures and magnetism-related properties are particularly welcome. The magnetic technology amd magnetic characterizations related to metallic magentic materials may also be submitted. Both reviews and original articles on microstructured or nanostructured metallic magnetic materials and their applications can be accepted.

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.
