Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research on new metallic alloys has primarily focused on glassy, nanocrystalline and medium/high-entropy alloys according to order and entropy tuning techniques. Metallic glassy materials have a unique microstructure: long-range atomic disorder and short-range order. Hence, they are thermodynamically metastable, having special functional properties such as high elastic moduli and strength, high magnetization, low coercivity, and high catalytic capabilities. Nanocrystalline materials are closely related to amorphous materials in terms of processing and service conditions. Recently， besides ordering in the alloys, entropy has gained the more and more attention. Medium/high-entropy alloys have achieved increasingly superior strength and other properties as a result of research by metallurgical scientists and engineers. Their characterization, technologies, and applications have long been of interest to metallurgists, physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and engineers.

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. Materials 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 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.
