Researchers from Skoltech have uncovered physical principles governing the remote "tuning" of nanocatalysts, where the ...

High-entropy alloys (HEAs), which were first developed in 2004, are alloys made up of several primary elements in almost equiatomic proportions. They have exceptional features, including high strength ...

Next-generation technology requires next-generation materials that can be tailored to exact mission requirements. Additive ...

The research group Functional Materials for Sustainability and Resilience (FunMat4SuRe) at University of Seville (Spain) has demonstrated the efficacy of a new "criticality-aware design strategy," ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Liquid metals have long fascinated materials scientists due to their unique properties that bridge the gap between solid and liquid states of matter. These materials, which remain ...

The process of alloying has been used by material engineers, particularly to impart useful specific properties to different materials. In the process of alloying, different materials in trace ...

The comprehensive overview of the synthesis of nanoscale high-entropy alloys and the advantages over conventional alloys. The comprehensive overview of the multi-field applications of nanoscale ...

The term “high entropy” refers to the fact that these alloys contain five or more elements in roughly equal amounts, resulting in a complex microstructure and high configurational entropy. This high ...
