Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a very promising process for producing near-net shape and very complex components. So far, it has mainly been applied for structural materials. However, it is also of great interest for functional, e.g., magnetic, materials. The latter receive growing focus in different areas, such as electrical machines and vehicles, electronics, computers, telecommunication, wind turbines, etc.
Additive manufacturing of such materials can result in novel components and, among other things, in graded structures and anisotropic magnetic behaviour with optimized structural and functional properties.
In this Special Issue, we deal with different AM processes of magnetic materials taken from soft magnetic materials (metallic compounds, oxides, and composites), magnetic high-entropy alloys, magnetic shape-memory alloys, and multiferroic materials as well as hard magnetic materials (e.g., ferrites, alnico, rare earth-based magnets, Cr–Co alloys, etc.). In addition, related topics, i.e., post-treatment, sensor integration, component/material testing, material analysis, and process modelling and simulation are very welcome for this Special Issue.

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. Metals 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.
