Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced material surface engineering technology is an important research frontier in the field of modern technology and the sustainable development of high-end manufacturing industry. It is one of the most important ways to reduce carbon emissions and improve the sustainable application cycle of materials globally. It can effectively save energy and materials, significantly improve the durability of components, and significantly expand the use function.
In the context of new development, surface engineering technologies, such as laser manufacturing, magnetron sputtering, chemical vapor deposition, and plasma spraying, continue to evolve and iterate. It is necessary to conduct in-depth research into the application effects and scientific significance of advanced material surface engineering technologies on different materials, as well as further promote the development of sustainable material technologies and theories represented by advanced material surface engineering technologies.
This Special Issue focuses on the sustainable application of advanced material surface engineering, and the theme is consistent with the scope of the journal. The Special Issue’s purpose is to promote the technological and theoretical development of advanced surface engineering technologies in sustainable applications, remanufacturing, and durability enhancement.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following subjects:
- Surface technology;
- Surface engineering;
- Coating;
- Surface engineering for sustainable applications;
- Sustainable materials;
- Carbon footprint and materials production.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Sustainability 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 2400 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.
