Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to gather scientific contributions that focus on corrosion mechanisms and electrochemical interface phenomena in material degradation processes.
An ample research scenario will be covered, including a range of corrosion and material degradation topics: localized corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, hydrogen embrittlement, crevice corrosion, atmospheric corrosion, corrosion inhibitors, microbiologically induced corrosion, as well as electrochemical kinetics and thermodynamics. In addition, advanced electrochemical techniques and computational studies for corrosion prevention and prediction, including stochastic and deterministic modeling approaches, as well as artificial intelligence and machine learning are also welcome. A comprehensive approach from theory to applications is considered for diverse topics such as energy systems, nuclear plants and repositories, geothermal, construction, transportation, aerospace, medical, environmental, materials sustainability, carbon capture, net zero emissions and circular economy aspects, among others.
In this regard, this Special Issue in Honor of Prof. Digby Macdonald is devoted to communications including experimental and theoretical studies on corrosion and electrochemical interfaces appealing to material degradation, protection and performance.

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. Corrosion and Materials Degradation is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
