Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intermetallic compounds and alloys based on intermetallic compounds are the subject of ever-increasing interest on the part of researchers. Such alloys have a number of important properties that are useful for their practical application, such as positive temperature dependence of the yield strength, anomalous temperature and pressure ranges, their stability, and resistance to high-intensity external influences.
The Special Issue is devoted to the ideas about the development of this direction, demonstrated by well-known scientists. The content of the Special Issue may include, but is not limited to, the following sections:
- Results of experimental studies of intermetallic compounds;
- Computer modeling of materials based on intermetallic compounds at three levels—microscopic (nanostructural), mesoscopic and macroscopic;
- Application of computer simulation methods, molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo, cellular automata method and their combinations;
- Quantum transformations are structural, superstructural. Their influence on the physical and mechanical properties of materials;
- Superalloys based on intermetallic compounds.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
