Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Under extreme conditions, such as those of high temperature and high pressure, engineering materials are frequently required to perform multiple functions. Maintaining good electrical conductivity, possessing high strength and hardness, facilitating catalysis functions and sustaining nuclear reactions, etc., are some of the imminent demands from traditional and emerging engineering fields. Consequently, it is necessary to evaluate the performance of these materials in serving the multi-ended needs and provide mechanistic-level understandings to progressively address the increasingly harsh requirements.
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for researchers to share their original research outcomes and to contribute to the outstanding collection of reviews and experimental, numerical and technical studies on the performance of multi-functional materials under high temperatures and high pressures.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Nuclear fuels and structural materials under high temperatures and high pressures;
- Performance of containment structural materials under high temperatures and high pressures;
- Conductive materials under extreme engineering conditions;
- Performance of catalytic materials under high temperatures and high pressures.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Di Yun
Guest Editor
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. Materials 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 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
