Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

It is impossible to imagine modern society without metal materials, including both pure metals and alloys. They have very wide ranges of applications and can be found in almost all aspects of our daily lives, as in all kinds of industry. Bearing in mind the importance and abundant use of metal materials and the costs and environmental impact that their decomposition may induce, the necessity of the analysis of their behavior becomes clear. In order to study their characteristics, surface processes, corrosion resistance and stability in various environments, electrochemical techniques such as potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and polarization resistance are most frequently used.

Therefore, it is our great pleasure to inform you that the Special Issue of Metals named “Electrochemistry Analysis in Metals and Alloys” is open for submissions and invite you to publish original research articles as well as reviews dealing with the application of electrochemical techniques to study metal materials.

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. Metals 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.

The formation of tin dendritic nanostructures by electrolysis from the alkaline electrolyte has been investigated. Morphology and structure of Sn dendrites produced applying both potentiostatic and galvanostatic regimes of the electrolysis are characterized by SEM and XRD, respectively. Depending on the applied cathodic potentials, three types of Sn dendrites were obtained: (a) needle-like and spear-like, (b) fern-like, and (c) stem-like dendrites. The very branchy dendrites with branches of the prismatic shape obtained by the galvanostatic regime of electrolysis represented a novel type of Sn dendrites, not previously reported in the literature. To explain the formation of various dendritic forms, correlation with the polarization characteristics for this electrodeposition system is considered. The needle-like and the spear-like dendrites represented monocrystals of (200),(400) preferred orientation, the fern-like dendrites exhibited the predominant (220),(440) preferred orientation, while in the stem-like particles Sn crystallites were oriented to a greater extent in the (440) crystal plane than in other planes. The galvanostatically synthesized Sn particles possessed the strong (200),(400) preferred orientation. The strong influence of parameters and regimes of electrodeposition on structural characteristics of Sn dendrites is explained by the fundamental laws of electrocrystallization taking into consideration the concept of slow-growing and fast-growing crystal planes.

Metals stability and corrosion resistance are very important factors that influence the possibility of their applications. In order to study and foresee the behavior of metals during various applications in all kinds of conditions and media, numerous approaches and techniques are developed and applied. Among those techniques, electrochemical measurements nowadays have a dominant role since they are proved to be highly efficient, reliable, fast, relatively low-cost, and easy regarding the preparation and execution of measurements. Besides that, they also provide quite a good amount of data regarding the effect and the mechanism of the reactions that metals interact in. Metals corrosion is reduced by various methods, one of the most frequently used ones is the application of corrosion inhibitors. Usually, organic compounds are studied as potential corrosion inhibitors, and at the moment the focus is on the effect on the environment. Hence, environmentally friendly and non-toxic inhibitors are important research topics. Purines, since they are the group of bioorganic compounds found in numerous biochemical structures such as DNA and RNA, present a very interesting possible solution and are studied as inhibitors of corrosion for copper, steel, aluminum, etc., as well as for some metal alloys. Data obtained and available up until the present are presented and discussed in this review. Full article
