A Novel Low-Density, High-Hardness, High-entropy Alloy with Close-packed Single-phase Nanocrystalline Structures

TLDR
A low-density, nanocrystalline high-entropy alloy, Al20Li20Mg10Sc20Ti30 was produced by mechanical alloying as discussed by the authors, which formed a single phase fcc structure during ball milling and transformed to single phase hcp upon annealing.
Abstract
A low-density, nanocrystalline high-entropy alloy, Al20Li20Mg10Sc20Ti30 was produced by mechanical alloying. It formed a single-phase fcc structure during ball milling and transformed to single-phase hcp upon annealing. The alloy has an estimated strength-to-weight ratio that is significantly higher than other nanocrystalline alloys and is comparable to ceramics. High hardness is retained after annealing.

A precipitation-hardened high-entropy alloy with outstanding tensile properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the possibility to precipitate a coherent reinforcing phase in a fcc-FeCoNiCr HEA matrix using minor additions of Ti and Al, and demonstrate that extraordinary balanced tensile properties at room temperature were achieved, which was due to a well combination of various hardening mechanisms, particularly precipitation hardening.
