About this journal

Corrosion Reviews is a Full Open Access Journal as of 2025.

Corrosion Reviews has successfully transitioned to a fully Open Access model as of 2025. All articles are published under a CC-BY License, ensuring immediate and free global access to all research. All current submissions accepted for publication are subject to an Article Processing Charge (APC). Further information can be found on the submit tab. For any queries relating to the change to open access please contact the Corrosion Reviews editorial office.

Objective
Corrosion Reviews is an international bimonthly journal devoted to critical reviews and, to a lesser extent, outstanding original articles that are key to advancing the understanding and application of corrosion science and engineering in the service of society. Papers may be of a theoretical, experimental or prac tical nature, p rovided that theym ake a significant contribution to knowledge in the field.

Topics
Cutting-edge topics such as but not limited to the following:

Corrosion of materials in energy systems
Corrosion of biomaterials and medical devices
Corrosion of materials in the chemical process industries
High temperature corrosion
Nuclear waste disposal
The effect of corrosion on water pollution and the environment
Corrosion of advanced materials
Degradation of non-metals
Corrosion control and monitoring techniques
Modeling and life prediction
Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC)
Environmental degradation of cultural heritage artifacts
Degradation and life extension in transportation infrastructure
Design for corrosion control in non-fossil power systems
Corrosion in upstream and downstream oil and gas components
Degradation in spent nuclear fuel storage syste ms
Greenco rrosion inhibitors
Eco-friendly and self-healing coatings

Article formats
Review articles and highly-relevant original articles.
