Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to submit your work to this Special Issue on “Microstructure and Properties of High Entropy Alloy Coatings”. Many coating methods can be used to improve the surface performance of alloys. The properties of coatings, such as mechanical properties and physical properties, strongly depend on their microstructure and fabrication methods. The scope of this Special Issue includes various coating techniques applied to high entropy alloys (HEAs), such as laser cladding, thermal spray coating, vapor deposition, plasma-transferred arc-cladding, and mechanical alloying. This Special Issue aims to present the recent developments in high entropy alloy coatings. Also, it focuses on the effects of oxide dispersoids on the properties of HEA coatings for elevated temperature applications.
In particular, the topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- High entropy superalloy coatings;
- Eutectic high entropy alloy coatings;
- Refectory high entropy alloy coatings;
- Lightweight high entropy alloy coatings.

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.
