Fast electron irradiation can induce the solid-state amorphization (SSA) of many intermetallic compounds. The occurrence of SSA stimulated by fast electron irradiation was found in the Al0.5TiZrPdCuNi high-entropy alloy (HEA). The relationship between the occurrence of SSA in intermetallic compounds under fast electron irradiation and the empirical alloy parameters for predicting the solid-solution-formation tendency in HEAs was discussed. The occurrence of SSA in intermetallic compounds was hardly predicted, only by the alloy parameters of δ or ΔHmix, which have been widely used for predicting solid-solution formation in HEAs. All intermetallic compounds with ΔHmix ≤ -35 kJ/mol and those with δ ≥ 12.5 exhibit the occurrence of SSA. This implies that the intermetallic compounds with a largely negative ΔHmix value and a largely positive δ parameter are favorable for the occurrence of SSA.

The solid solution formation criteria for the equi-atomic ratio alloys were discussed. It is found that higher entropy of mixing (Smix>1.61R), less atomic size difference (δ<4.6), and near zero of the absolute value of the enthalpy of mixing (-2.685δ-2.54<Hmix <-1.28δ+5.44 KJ/mol) facilitate the formation of solid solution for the multi-principle components equi-atomic alloys.

Zirconia (ZrO2) is often added to ceramic compacts to increase their toughness. The mechanisms by which this toughness increase occurs are generally accepted to be those of transformation toughening and microcracking. The mechanism of transformation toughening is based on the presence of metastable tetragonal ZrO2 which transforms to the monoclinic allotrope when stressed by a propagating crack. The decrease in volume which accompanies this transformation effectively relieves the applied stress at the crack tip and toughens the material; microcrack toughening arises from the deflection of a propagating crack around sharply angular inclusions.These mechanisms, however, do not explain the toughness increases associated with the class of composites investigated here. Analytical electron microscopy (AEM) has been used to determine whether solid solution effects could be the cause of this increased toughness. Specimens of a mullite (3Al2O3·2SiO2) + 15 vol. % ZrO2 were prepared by the usual technique of mechanical thinning followed by ion beam milling. All observations were made in a Philips EM400 TEM/STEM microscope fitted with EDXS and EELS spectrometers.

The formation of single phase solid solution in High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) is essential for the properties of the alloys therefore, numerous approach were proposed by many researchers to predict the stability of single phase solid solution in High Entropy Alloy. The present review examines some of the recent developments while using computational intelligence techniques such as parametric approach, CALPHAD, Machine Learning etc. for prediction of various phase formation in multicomponent high entropy alloys. A detail study of this data-driven approaches pertaining to the understanding of structural and phase formation behaviour of a new class of compositionally complex alloys is done in the present investigation. The advantages and drawbacks of the various computational are also discussed. Finally, this review aims at understanding several computational modeling tools complying the thermodynamic criteria for phase formation of novel HEAs which could possibly deliver superior mechanical properties keeping an aim at advanced engineering applications.

The paper reflects on the usefulness of the alloy design methodology NICE (Niobium Intermetallic Composite Elaboration) for the development of new Nb-containing metallic ultra-high-temperature materials (UHTMs), namely refractory metal (Nb) intermetallic composites (RM(Nb)ICs), refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) and refractory complex concentrated alloys (RCCAs), in which the same phases can be present, specifically bcc solid solution(s), M5Si3 silicide(s) and Laves phases. The reasons why a new alloy design methodology was sought and the foundations on which NICE was built are discussed. It is shown that the alloying behavior of RM(Nb)ICs, RHEAs and RCCAs can be described by the same parameters. The practicality of parameter maps inspired by NICE for describing/understanding the alloying behavior and properties of alloys and their phases is demonstrated. It is described how NICE helps the alloy developer to understand better the alloys s/he develops and what s/he can do and predict (calculate) with NICE. The paper expands on RM(Nb)ICs, RHEAs and RCCAs with B, Ge or Sn, the addition of which and the presence of A15 compounds is recommended in RHEAs and RCCAs to achieve a balance of properties.
