The He irradiation-induced mechanical and microstructural evolutions were studied in NbMoTaW (at.%) and NbMoTaWRe (at.%) refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) films, respectively. The addition of Re reduces the yield stress, while improves the ductility in as-deposited NbMoTaW RHEA film. After He irradiation at room temperature, grain boundary brittleness is much severe in NbMoTaW RHEA film than in NbMoTaWRe RHEA film. The addition of Re enhances lattice distortion, leading amorphous regions with several nanometers forms in the grain boundaries in NbMoTaWRe RHEA film. In additionn, grain sizes in NbMoTaWRe RHEA are much smaller than in NbMoTaW RHEA. Excess volumes facilitate the annihilation of damages caused by He ions bombardment. He bubbles mainly distributes along grain boundaries in NbMoTaW RHEA film. The bubble size decreases and becomes hard to discern in NbMoTaWRe RHEA film. Thus, hardening effect induced by He irradiation is less obvious in NbMoTaWRe than in NbMoTaW RHEA film. In summary, the addition of Re to NbMoTaW RHEA effectively improves irradiation-resistance.

Background: Bisphenol A (BPA; or 4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol) is an endocrine disrupting chemical. It was widely used in a variety of plastic-based manufactured products for several years. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recently reduced the Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) for BPA by 20,000 times due to concerns about immune-toxicity.

TiMoNbX (X = Cr, Ta, Zr) RHEA coatings were fabricated on TC4 titanium alloy substrate using laser cladding technology. The microstructure and corrosion resistance of the RHEA were studied by XRD, SEM and an electrochemical workstation. The results show that the TiMoNb series RHEA coating was composed of a columnar dendrite (BCC) phase, a rod-like second phase, a needle-like structure and equiaxed dendrite, but the TiMoNbZr RHEA coating showed high-density defects, similar to those in TC4 titanium alloy, which were composed of small non-equiaxed dendrites and lamellar α'(Ti).

Refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) have been proven to have excellent mechanical properties with a potential use as protective thin films. However, the combination of high hardness with low friction and wear is a major challenge in the design of RHEA films. In this study, we show that NbMoWTa/Ag self-lubricating multilayered films give a remarkable reduction in friction and at same time maintain high hardness.

Development of high-entropy alloy (HEA) films is a promising and cost-effective way to incorporate these materials of superior properties in harsh environments. In this work, a refractory high-entropy alloy (RHEA) film of equimolar CuMoTaWV was deposited on silicon and 304 stainless-steel substrates using DC-magnetron sputtering. A sputtering target was developed by partial sintering of an equimolar powder mixture of Cu, Mo, Ta, W, and V using spark plasma sintering.
