A new strategy to design eutectic high-entropy alloys using mixing enthalpy

Although eutectic high entropy alloys (EHEAs) display homogeneously fine microstructure, excellent castability and promising industrial application potential, how to design eutectic compositions in high entropy alloys (HEAs) remains to be challenging. Here, a novel strategy, specifically, through calculation of mixing enthalpy, was used to locate eutectic compositions in HEAs. As a proof of this concept, a series of EHEAs were located and...
