Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High-performance alloys with high strength, high elastic modulus, high toughness, and excellent physical properties, as well as excellent machinability, continue to hold a significant position in the field of materials. These high-performance alloys are widely utilized as key structural and functional parts in various industries, such as machinery, automotive, aerospace, biomedical, electronic information, and other high-tech fields, and offer distinct advantages in terms of performance–price ratio and boast extensive market potential. The high performance of alloy materials has always been the goal of product application. The past few decades have witnessed remarkable progress in high-performance alloys and their applications in basic theory, new technology principle, novel material design, preparation and forming, and properties. Therefore, it is of great importance to understand the relationship between the preparation, microstructure, and properties of alloys, and it also facilitates the production of products with higher quality so as to meet the requirements of the industry.
This Special Issue aims to publish recent successes and developments regarding the design, preparation, processing, microstructure, properties, and application of high-performance alloys.

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. Applied Sciences 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.
