Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is devoted to research contributions that explore the design of materials and novel technology applications for obtaining the desired properties of soft magnetic materials. This Special Issue focuses on the relationship between the various preparation/treatment aspects, crystal structure, magnetic structure and magnetic properties, including loss generation mechanism and eddy current suppression. Studies on the effect of the insertion of insulating layers on powders/nanopowders and of melt-spun ribbons on eddy current suppression and the enhancement of soft magnetic characteristics are especially welcome. This Special Issue also welcomes contributions related to the 3D printing process of soft magnetic materials and their polymer-based composites. By providing a comprehensive overview of the interplay between the loss generation mechanism and its suppression, this resource serves as a valuable reservoir of knowledge for increasing magnetic material 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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
