Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High temperature alloys continue to play a vital role in the transportation and power generation industries. While both sectors look to improve the system efficiency by raising the maximum temperature the alloys can withstand, the transportation industry is also focused on lightweighting. In recent years, we have seen critical advances in a number of high temperature alloy systems, such as Co-based superalloys, precipitation-strengthened high entropy alloys, and high temperature aluminum alloys, to name a few. This special issue will focus on recent advancements in the field and invites original contributions that cover a broad range of alloy systems and their properties.

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.
