6. Participants selected to make an oral contribution will need to contribute a full manuscript to the Section “Selected Papers from Corrosion and Materials Degradation Conference” in Corrosion and Materials Degradation free of charge before 30 September 2022. Full manuscript submissions will undergo the usual process of each journal, including peer-review.

Abstract Submission Requirements

Abstracts should be prepared in MS Word. Please use the 2nd Corrosion and Materials Degradation Web Conference Microsoft Word template file (download below). Do not insert any graphics (schemes, figures, etc.) into a movable frame which can superimpose the text and make the layout very difficult.

Optional Files Submission: Video Presentations

After abstract acceptance, authors will be able to submit an additional video along your submission, to be uploaded on Sciforum during the conference. This is a unique way of presenting your paper and discussing it with peers from all over the world. The video should be no longer than 10 minutes and less than 250 MB and be prepared with one of the following formats: mp4, webm or ogg. Please upload a copy of your video, in the corresponding required fields, and upload your file in the corresponding optional field.

Copyright

MDPI, the publisher of the Sciforum.net platform, is an open access publisher. We believe that authors should retain the copyright to their scholarly works. Hence, by submitting a Communication paper to this conference, you retain the copyright of your paper, but you grant MDPI the non-exclusive right to publish this paper online on the Sciforum.net platform. This means you can easily submit your paper to any scientific journal at a later stage and transfer the copyright to its publisher (if required by that publisher).
