Porous high entropy alloy CrMnFeCoNi exhibited remarkable catalytic activity and stability toward p-nitrophenol hydrogenation. The enhanced catalytic performance not only resulted from the high surface area, but also from exposed high-index facets with terraces.

In this paper, a light-weight equimolar MgCaAlLiCu high entropy alloy (HEA) is reported. The microstructure of the alloy cast in copper mould was composed mainly of a solid solution phase with tetragonal symmetry structure, presenting the high-entropy alloy nature. The alloy exhibited high fracture strength of 910 MPa during the room-temperature compression process. Based on thermodynamic calculation, the underlying reason for the formation of the solid solution in the MgCaAlLiCu alloy is given.

Different-shaped ultrafine MoNbTaW high-entropy alloy powders were firstly prepared by a convenient mechanical alloying method. The phase composition and microstructure of the powders were characterized. The powders are ultrafine with nano-sized grains and a good homogeneous microstructure. All the powders have a single body-centered cubic solid solution phase and form the high-entropy alloy during mechanical alloying. These powders with different shapes are quite attractive for developing high-performance MoNbTaW high-entropy alloy bulk and coatings combined with a following sintering, spraying, or additive manufacturing technique.

In this work, non-equiatomic W10Mo27Cr21Ti22Al20 refractory high-entropy alloy (RHEA) was produced using mechanical alloying followed by spark plasma sintering. The phase formation, microstructure, and compressive mechanical properties of the alloy were studied. During mechanical alloying, a Body-centered cubic (BCC) solid solution phase with a particle size of less than 1 µm was obtained after 18 h ball milling. The microstructure of the sintered sample exhibits three distinct phases consisting of two solid solution phases BCC1 and BCC2 as well as fine TiCxOy precipitates distributed in them. The volume fractions of each phase were about 79%, 8%, and 13%, respectively. The sintered W10Mo27Cr21Ti22Al20 showed yield strengths of 2465, 1506, 405, and 290 MPa at room temperature 600, 1000, and 1200°C, respectively, which are about twice that of the same refractory high-entropy alloy produced by vacuum arc melting. At 1000 and 1200°C, the strength after yielding gradually increased to 970 and 718 MPa at a compressive strain of 60%. The studied refractory high-entropy alloy can have good potential in high-temperature applications due to its high specific strength at elevated temperatures compared to conventional Ni-based superalloys and most as-reported refractory high-entropy alloys.

Refractory high entropy alloys are an interesting material class because of their high thermal stability, decent electrical conductivity, and promising mechanical properties at elevated temperature. In the present work, we report on the thermal stability of body-centered cubic MoNbTaVW solid solution thin films that were synthesized by cathodic arc deposition. After vacuum annealing up to 1600 °C, the morphology, chemical composition, crystal structure, and electrical conductivity, as well as the mechanical properties, were analyzed. The observed body-centered cubic MoNbTaVW solid solution phase is stable up to 1500 °C. The evolution of electrical and mechanical properties due to the annealing treatment is discussed based on the observed structural changes of the synthesized thin films.

The controllable incorporation of multiple immiscible elements into a single nanoparticle merits untold scientific and technological potential, yet remains a challenge using conventional synthetic techniques. We present a general route for alloying up to eight dissimilar elements into single-phase solid-solution nanoparticles, referred to as high-entropy-alloy nanoparticles (HEA-NPs), by thermally shocking precursor metal salt mixtures loaded onto carbon supports [temperature ~2000 kelvin (K), 55-millisecond duration, rate of ~105 K per second]. We synthesized a wide range of multicomponent nanoparticles with a desired chemistry (composition), size, and phase (solid solution, phase-separated) by controlling the carbothermal shock (CTS) parameters (substrate, temperature, shock duration, and heating/cooling rate). To prove utility, we synthesized quinary HEA-NPs as ammonia oxidation catalysts with ~100% conversion and >99% nitrogen oxide selectivity over prolonged operations.
