Consequent to the interaction potential model, the high-order elastic constants at high entropy alloys in single-phase quaternary ScTiZrHf have been calculated at different temperatures. Elastic constants of second order (SOECs) helps to determine other ultrasonic parameters. With the help of SOECs other elastic moduli, bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s modulus, Pugh’s ratio, elastic stiffness constants and Poisson’s ratio are estimated at room temperature for elastic and mechanical characterization. The other ultrasonic parameters are calculated at room temperature for elastic and mechanical characterization. The temperature variation of ultrasonic velocities along the crystal's z-axis is evaluated using SOECs. The temperature variation of the  average debye velocity and the thermal relaxation time (τ) are also estimated along this orientation axis. The ultrasonic properties correlated with elastic, thermal and mechanical properties which is temperature dependent is also discussed. The ultrasonic attenuation due to phonon – phonon (p-p) interactions is also calculated at different temperatures. In the study of ultrasonic attenuation such as a function of temperature, thermal conductivity appears to be main contributor and p- p interactions are the responsible reason of attenuation and found that the mechanical properties of the high entropy alloy ScTiZrHf are superior at room temperature.

In the present study, the microstructural stability and mechanical properties of a MnFeCoNiCu alloy in which Cr was replaced by Cu from Cantor composition (CoCrFeMnNi) was studied. In the as-cast alloy, the dendrite arms are enriched with Cu and Mn and matrix between dendrite arms is enriched with Fe and Co. Ni was richer in the matrix, but also observed in the dendrite arms. Cu and Mn tend to segregate and solidify initially because the melting temperatures of Cu and Mn are lower than Fe and Co, resulting in the growth of Cu-Mn dendrite. After homogenization, the dendrites structure disappeared and grain boundaries are visible, indicating the segregated elements in the dendrite structure were homogenized. The presence of single phase FCC structure was confirmed after homogenization. The tensile strength of 1220 MPa with the ductility of 6 % was obtained in MnFeCoNiCu alloy.

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) present excellent mechanical properties. However, the exploitation of chemical properties of HEAs is far less than that of mechanical properties, which is mainly limited by the low specific surface area of HEAs synthesized by traditional methods. Thus, it is vital to develop new routes to fabricate HEAs with novel three-dimensional structures and a high specific surface area. Herein, we develop a facile approach to fabricate nanoporous noble metal quasi-HEA microspheres by melt-spinning and dealloying. The as-obtained nanoporous Cu30Au23Pt22Pd25 quasi-HEA microspheres present a hierarchical porous structure with a high specific surface area of 69.5 m2/g and a multiphase approximatively componential solid solution characteristic with a broad single-group face-centered cubic XRD pattern, which is different from the traditional single-phase or two-phase solid solution HEAs. To differentiate, these are named quasi-HEAs. The synthetic strategy proposed in this paper opens the door for the synthesis of porous quasi-HEAs related materials, and is expected to promote further applications of quasi-HEAs in various chemical fields.

Multi-element material coating systems have received much attention for improving the mechanical performance in industry. However, they are still focused on ternary systems and seldom beyond quaternary ones. High entropy alloy (HEA) bulk material and thin films are systems that are each comprised of at least five principal metal elements in equally matched proportions, and some of them are found possessing much higher strength than traditional alloys. In this study, CrVTiNbZr high entropy alloy and nitrogen contained CrVTiNbZr(N) nitride coatings were synthesized using high ionization cathodic-arc deposition. A chromium-vanadium alloy target, a titanium-niobium alloy target and a pure zirconium target were used for the deposition. By controlling the nitrogen content and cathode current, the CrNbTiVZr(N) coating with gradient or multilayered composition control possessed different microstructures and mechanical properties. The effect of the nitrogen content on the chemical composition, microstructure and mechanical properties of the CrVTiNbZr(N) coatings was investigated. Compact columnar microstructure was obtained for the synthesized CrVTiNbZr(N) coatings. The CrVTiNbZrN coating (HEAN-N165), which was deposited with nitrogen flow rate of 165 standard cubic centimeters per minute (sccm), exhibited slightly blurred columnar and multilayered structures containing CrVN, TiNbN and ZrN. The design of multilayered CrVTiNbZrN coatings showed good adhesion strength. Improvement of adhesion strength was obtained with composition-gradient interlayers. The CrVTiNbZrN coating with nitrogen content higher than 50 at.% possessed the highest hardness (25.2 GPa) and the resistance to plastic deformation H3/E*2 (0.2 GPa) value, and therefore the lowest wear rate was obtained because of high abrasion wear resistance.
