Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the challenges facing many processes in the chemical, petro-chemical and pharmaceutical industries, energy conversion power plants, airplane turbines and waste treatment installations is an increase in the efficiency, a way for reducing emissions of polluting gases and waste. One way to achieve these goals is by increasing temperature and/or pressure. In all these applications, most of them working under hostile environments/atmospheres, the use of more resistant alloys, mainly regarding creep and oxidation resistance, working would result in the prolonged half-lives of the components. This would increase the productivity of the process and reduce the maintenance costs, extending the shutdown periods required for the inspection of installations.
This issue is dedicated to presenting new results, providing new advances in the field of high-temperature oxidation of metallic materials in different types of atmospheres, such as air, CO2, vapour-containing atmospheres, steam, as well as the oxidation behaviour under subcritical and supercritical applications involving high temperatures and high-pressure processes. Studies aiming to unveil the effect of compositional changes or microstructural changes associated with the processing route on the kinetics, the structure of the oxide scale, and the oxidation mechanism are welcome. Additionally, manuscripts evaluating the effect of variables related to the atmosphere (composition, temperature, pressure, etc.) or those modelling the oxidation behaviour of the alloys match the scope of this Special Issue. Contributions are not limited to structural materials for high-temperature applications, such as superalloys, high/medium entropy alloys, refractory alloys, intermetallic-based alloys or multiprincipal complex alloys, but also could involve other applications and metallic materials, which could undergo degradation as a result of exposure to high temperatures.

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.

Title: Experimental determination of multiple mechanisms of surface degradation at extreme oxidation condition
Authors: Simon N. Lekakh; Oleg Neroslavsky
Affiliation: Missouri University of Science and Technology
Abstract: Methodology of experimental determination of multiple mechanisms simultaneously involved in surface degradation, including development of oxide scale, scale spallation and species volatilization will be discussed. General problem will be formalized and specific cases will be presented. Experimental data for Cr/Ni austenitic steel and high alloyed by Si/Mo cast iron will be used to illustrate suggested approaches.
