Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Corrosion cracking (CC) can cause premature failure of metals and alloys in a corrosive environment. In many cases, CC can cause catastrophic and unexpected failures. Full understanding of the exact mechanisms is lacking, as they can be material-specific. For example, alloying elements strongly affect CC of stainless steel. This Special Issue on “Corrosion Cracking Behavior of Metals and Alloys” will focus on fundamental aspects of CC. Individual research articles or comprehensive reviews on CC are welcome. This Special Issue will cover the latest research on this important topic.

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.
