Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research on cold spray technology is rapidly expanding in a number of critical areas that include coatings for corrosion resistance, wear resistance, material restoration, additive manufacturing, structural repair, bio-compatible materials, reactive materials, and direct-write processes. The successful implementation of cold spray has been the focus of research and development efforts in powder composition, processing and characterization, multiphase flow and structural modeling, equipment design and optimization, process parameters, and material testing. This research spans a number of different disciplines and requires the coordination of all aspects of cold spray. New applications that exploit the advantages of cold spray are being developed at an increasing rate. Research is expanding into the fundamental physics of the cold spray process, such as the high strain rate behavior, bonding mechanism, and effects of oxide deposition quality, as well as its areas of application.
This Special Issue welcomes papers on cold spray that cover the a spectrum of works, from basic, fundamental research to applications such as additive manufacturing. The Special Issues aims to present cutting edge results from a broad spectrum of technologies.

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.
