Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Magnesium alloys, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, and other related lightweight engineering materials are commonly used in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries, as well as in biomedical fields. Currently, it is also well known that their undesirable corrosion resistance in most service environments hinders their industrial applications. Therefore, understanding the different corrosion mechanisms of these lightweight engineering materials in different working environments and developing associated methods for their corrosion protection is imperative.
This Special Issue aims to provide an open platform for metallurgists, materials scientists, and engineers to share and disseminate recent research advances on the corrosion and protection of lightweight engineering materials. The potential topics of this Special Issue are diverse, encompassing alloying, processing, surface treatment, and electrochemical protection. It welcomes both experimental and theoretical studies and accepts original research and review articles.

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.
