High-entropy alloys as heat-resistant materials—Is it real? (a brief survey)
摘要
We perform the analysis of available publications devoted to the study of high-entropy alloys. A group of refractory high-entropy alloys with satisfactory ductility at room and elevated temperatures (up to 1200 °C) in tension and compression tests is considered in detail. It is indicated that these alloys can be used as heat-resistant materials under the conditions of short-term operation. We also make a conclusion that the application of refractory high-entropy alloys in the course of long-term operation is problematic due to the low characteristics of creep resistance and stress relaxation.
