Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Corrosion, generally defined as the surface degradation of most metals due to electrochemical reactions in any environment, has been quite a challenge to enhancing the reliability that determines the lifetime of materials for actual applications. One of the most attractive techniques to alleviate such problems is the fabrication of protective coating from noble metal, inorganic, and organic materials by taking electrochemical behavior into account in order to attain an excellent corrosion performance. The purpose of the Special Issue is to provide a forum for addressing corrosion and electrochemical behavior of metals coating on the basis of current innovations, as well as the fundamental theories of the conformal coating on metals, which comprises the contributions of original research papers and review articles from leading groups around the world. The issue also highlights the ongoing advances in the growing industrial fields, for instance, (i) corrosion phenomena and corresponding mechanisms in the context of thermodynamics and electrochemistry, (ii) novel approaches to tailoring protective coating with exceptional corrosion resistance in general or specific environments, (iii) any other aspects of interest relating to coatings on metals. After the manuscripts are reviewed carefully, those accepted will be published immediately online as a Special Issue entitled ‘Corrosion and Electrochemical Behavior of Metals Coating’ in Coatings.

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.
