Development of high-entropy cermet coatings in high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) and suspension solution plasma spray processes

With an ever-expanding demand for critical materials and minerals, it is crucial to find sustainable material solutions to well-established industrial requirements. High-entropy materials, i.e., materials that mix 5 or more constituents in near equi-atomic proportions, could mitigate these issues by offering highly resistant and stable materials. As a result, addressing the issues of critical materials […]
