Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue on “Corrosion Technology and Electrochemistry of Metal and Alloy” will serve as a platform to explore the intricate realm of material degradation, focusing on corrosion processes, technological advancements, and electrochemical interventions in metals and alloys.
Corrosion, an inevitable natural phenomenon, poses significant challenges across industries by affecting the integrity, performance, and longevity of various materials. This Special Issue delves into the latest research and innovations that shed light on corrosion mechanisms, mitigation strategies, and the development of novel materials with enhanced resistance to corrosive environments.
The integration of electrochemical principles into corrosion studies has opened new avenues for understanding the underlying mechanisms and designing effective protection methods. This Special Issue will delve into the synergy between corrosion science and electrochemistry, encompassing topics such as corrosion monitoring techniques, surface modification methods, and the application of advanced analytical tools to characterize material behavior.
We extend our gratitude to the contributors for their dedication to unraveling the complexities of corrosion and electrochemistry. Their valuable insights and discoveries will undoubtedly enrich the knowledge base and inspire further breakthroughs in the realm of materials science and engineering.
We hope this compilation will foster a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities of corrosion while stimulating collaborative efforts to combat its detrimental effects.
I am delighted to extend an invitation for you to contribute a manuscript to this Special Issue. We warmly welcome full papers, communications, and reviews to be a part of this publication.
Dr. Seunghyun Kim
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.
