A new strategy to design eutectic high-entropy alloys using simple mixture method

Eutectic high entropy alloys (EHEAs) hold promising industrial application potential, but how to design EHEA compositions remains challenging. In the present work, a simple and effective strategy by combining mixing enthalpy and constituent binary eutectic compositions was proposed to design EHEA compositions. This strategy was then applied to a series of (CoCrFeNi)Mx (M = Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf) HEAs, leading to the discovery of new EHEAs, namely,...
