A new race for high performance structural materials has started since the discovery of high entropy alloys at the beginning of the 21st century. The possible combination of several elements in an, until then, unknown composition space opened the ground for discovering new materials. Solid solution strengthening remains the most prominent mechanisms that is active in this family of materials, but it is supported by all other strengthening mechanism on the path to better and better performing materials. Chemical, thermal and mechanical approaches are combined to optimize these alloys. Optimum performances can be reached by using a high number of different strengthening mechanisms, induced both by composition and processing. The most prominent with composition induced mechanism is precipitation hardening, and on the processing side it is cold working such as cold-rolling, torsion or extrusion. The contribution uses tensile test data at room temperature solely for comparison – high temperature and cryogenic data are omitted because it would lead beyond the scope of this manuscript.
Uniaxial mechanical properties of face‑centered cubic singleand multiphase high‑entropy alloys
(2022)
Since the high entropy concept was proposed at the beginning of the millennium, the research focus of this alloy family has been wide ranging. The initial search for single-phase alloys has expanded with the aim of improving mechanical properties. This can be achieved by several strengthening mechanisms such as solid-solution hardening, hot and cold working and precipitation hardening. Both single- and multiphase high- and medium-entropy alloys can be optimized for mechanical strength via several processing routes, as is the case for conventional alloys with only one base element, such as steels or Ni-based superalloys.
