Preface to "Alloy Steels"
k
The subject of alloy steels covers a broad range of steels and end use markets. Alloy steels are
used in the automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, and the energy sectors. When this Special
Issue was started, the goal was to provide readers with a collection of papers fromo around the
world that reflect the field. Within this book are twenty-three papers that cover the microstructure,
manufacturing, corrosion, and application of alloy steels. These papers cover a broad range of alloys
and research focuses that provide the cutting-edge answers needed for today’s markets. The review by
Dr. Mohammed provides an excellent review about welding austenitic and duplex stainless steels.
As editor, my job is much simpler than those of the authors or reviewers. They are othe ones who
have struggled in the lab conducting experiments and analyzing the data. Their considerable effort
in providing high-quality papers should never be underestimated or unappreciated. Reviewers also
deserve appreciation for the time in reading the submitted papers and providing valuable feedback to
improve them. The countless staff at MDPI also contributed to this by helping everyone involved with
the day-to-day functions required in publishing this issue. I want to thank all of these inBdividuals for
helping make this Special Issue the second largest ever published by MDPI.
