Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The scope of this Special Issue “Sensors for Corrosion Monitoring” of Sensors is the research and the development of various sensors for corrosion monitoring.
The present Special Issue focuses on the development of various sensors to monitor the decay process of metals using different engineering approaches to monitor the state of a metal in different environments. By using sensors and by monitoring the corrosion, the durability in various demanding applications can be predicted and the lifetime of an object/structure prolonged.
It is highly recommended to present your research using various physical, electrochemical, and other approaches for monitoring corrosion processes. Various fields of applications of sensors for corrosion monitoring are welcome such as the monitoring of steel corrosion in concrete, corrosion in extreme environments, monitoring bronze and steel corrosion by atmospheric exposure, and other possible fields of application.
The study and development of different sensors are envisioned, ie., electrical resistance sensors, acoustic emission sensors, weight loss coupons, coupled multi-electrode arrays, optical cables, new methods such as diagnosis tool by digital image correlation, etc.
Submitted papers should provide comprehensive insight on corrosion monitoring by physical and electrochemical monitoring extended with the characterization of corrosion products and the evaluation of the performance for different applications.

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
