Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The purpose of the second volume of this Special Issue is to present the results of scientific research related to the study of metal alloy microstructures at various stages of their production and the properties of these materials.
The properties of metallic alloys do not depend only on their chemical composition. The microstructure of an alloy also has a significant influence on the behavior of its products. Metallurgical technology begins with natural and recycled raw materials and uses melting and casting methods. Part of the metallurgical production is used in the as-cast state. Another part is further processed by various technological processes. These include various methods of metal forming, heat and thermochemical treatment, welding, sintering, and additive manufacturing.
The study of the rules of alloy structure formation under various working processes and their material properties enables the innovation and optimization of metal alloys.
The above issues form the subject of this SI. We invite you to share your latest results. Topics of interest include analyses of the microstructure and properties of alloys, their processing, the development and application of modern research, and modeling and simulation techniques. Review articles on related topics are welcome. We hope you will join us in developing this interesting area of research.

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.
