Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
During the utilization of materials, their service life is often reduced due to factors such as oxidation, wear, corrosion, and erosion in different service environments. Corrosion and wear pose significant challenges across a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, metallurgy, marine engineering, aerospace, energy, automotive engineering, and more. It is essential to comprehend the underlying mechanisms and implement appropriate prevention and protection measures to extend the lifespan of materials.
This Special Issue aims to provide an inclusive platform for academia to share their innovative approaches, theoretical insights, and experimental findings in the areas of corrosion, wear, erosion and wear corrosion protection. We welcome original research papers from scholars and researchers spanning various disciplines relevant to corrosion and wear mechanisms. Research areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Analysis of corrosion and wear mechanisms
- Techniques for assessing corrosion and wear
- Monitoring and control strategies for corrosion and wear
- Protective coatings for corrosion and wear resistance
- Surface treatments aimed at enhancing material protection
- Exploration of novel protective materials and coatings
We look forward to receiving your contributions!
Dr. Hejie Yang

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. Coatings 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.
