Description

High-entropy alloys consist of multiple elements with different crystal structures but can crystallize as a single phase. Recently, we developed a new technique to prepare high-entropy alloys, which is called high-gravity combustion synthesis. In the new technique, high-entropy alloys are produced by rapid solidification of hot melts from highly-exothermic aluminothermic reactions. High-gravity combustion synthesis may provide a fast and efficient way to produce high-entropy alloys with low energy consumption. Here, we report several high-entropy alloys by high-gravity combustion synthesis and investigate the cryogenic properties of the alloys.
