Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to submit your work to this Special Issue on “Advanced Materials and Surface Protection”. In general, changes in and the failure of materials originate from their surface and interface under working conditions. Thus, the impact of material composition, organization, structure, and processing on their surface and the failure rule under service conditions often is studied. Moreover, many surface processing and surface modification practices are used to protect materials in order to prolong their serving life. At present, many researchers have taken some measures to carry out related engineering application research on advanced materials subject to surface processing. Thus, this Special Issue aims to cover recent developments in advanced materials and surface protection.
Topic of interests include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Functional coatings;
- HVOF/cold/plasma spray coatings;
- Simulation analysis of materials or surface coatings;
- Physical vapor deposition;
- Surface engineering;
- Mechanical properties;
- Corrosion and its resistance mechanisms of materials or surface coatings;
- The friction and wear of materials or surface coatings;
- Laser cladding;
- High-entropy alloy;
- Metal processing;
- Composite materials;
- High-temperature performance.
Full papers, review articles, and communications are all welcome.

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. Coatings 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.
