Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Applied electrochemistry uses numerous methods to progressively improve the quality of life via the study of charge transfer phenomena. Electroanalytical techniques provide unique information about mechanisms and systems that are currently involved in the necessary development of a broad range of technologies, including energy conversion, conservation and storage, new battery systems, supercapacitors, solar cells, industrial synthesis, corrosion, electroplating, electrodeposition, medical application, and sensors. Thus, this Special Issue aims to compile original and innovative studies on electrochemical characterization techniques (such as voltametric techniques, impedance measurement technique, etc.) that are frequently applied to perform electrochemical studies of metallic materials. All these techniques provide clear insight into the interfacial electrochemical behavior between electrode and electrolyte (in an electrochemical cell). Hence, the techniques can be used to understand the various electrochemical behaviors of materials. Energy saving, corrosion prevention and health pose challenges to which electrochemistry can contribute. Additionally, corrosion and protection are among the subjects that requires attention since their mitigation can preserve resources in several industries (in the construction, oil and gas, food, and biomedical industries, for example).

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
