Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Considering that electrical and electronic devices are used almost everywhere, the rapid development of conductive materials is of great importance. Better conductive properties would reduce the cost, heat loss and dimensions of conductors. In light of this, the demand for high-quality conductive materials has accelerated in the modern industry.
We kindly invite you to submit manuscripts for this Special Issue entitled "Preparation and Application of Conductive Materials". Original research and critical review articles are all welcome. Papers which describe the recent advances in techniques regarding designing, manufacturing, processing, and characterizing conductive materials a the specific focus on all aspects of applications are also welcome.
The following are topics of interest:
- carbon-based conductive materials (graphene, carbon black, graphite, carbon nanotubes);
- metals, steels, alloys;
- polymers, composites;
- thin films, protective barriers and coatings;
- materials of the future;
- structure–properties relationship;
- nanostructuration of conducting materials;
- measurement, determination of parameters, geometric dimensions and properties;
- identification, sorting and classification;
- protection of conductive materials and prevention of corrosion;
- destructive and nondestructive testing;
- detection, imaging and quantitative assessment of structural defects in conductors;
- material deterioration mechanism;
- sensors and monitoring technologies of conductive materials.

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. Materials 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.
