Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies are modern, advanced manufacturing processes. Additive manufacturing refers to the general manufacturing process—the production of objects by adding material—under which various production processes such as rapid prototyping, rapid tooling, or mass customization can be subsumed.
The successful use of additive manufacturing technologies allows for significant flexibility in the product design process, allowing for a solution with properties that are difficult to achieve using conventional manufacturing techniques. Except for rapid manufacturing and mass customization, an additional advantage is the flexibility of the production itself, especially in the case of customized or small batch production.
Currently, the performance properties of additively manufactured parts are affected by a lot of different parameters and are still the main topic of research papers. The main scope of this Special Issue is to discuss the potential applications of alloys fabricated using additive manufacturing technology. It emphasizes the advantages of customization, design freedom, and reduced material waste offered by this technology, making it particularly beneficial for industries such as aerospace, automotive, mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, civil engineering, material engineering, manufacturing, nanotechnology, tribology, etc.

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.
