“…The phase formation and transformation of multi-component compound systems have been intensively discussed based on thermodynamic considerations [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. For the case of phase formation and phase stability, thermodynamic descriptions were developed using thermodynamic models for Cr-Sn-Ti [1] and Al-Zn-Mg-Si [2].…”

a b s t r a c tPhase selection during Ca silicide formation was discussed using the chemical potential and the effective heat of formation ( H ) models. The compositional analyses of Ca silicides were experimentally carried out in detail for both the layered and powder growth process. Based on the calculation, the Ca 2 Si phase has the largest negative H and is the first phase to form in the Ca-Si system. In addition, the total energy consideration consisting of the formation energy of each phase and interfacial energy between two adjoining phases is proposed to explain the experimental results of phase selection in the Ca silicide formation.

“…Enhancing the use of light-weight materials can effectively save energy and reduce consumption. Besides, traditional aluminum/magnesium alloys have shown good specific stiffness and specific strength, meanwhile, a large number of research results and corresponding applications have been obtained [1][2][3][4][5][6] . In recent years, the high-entropy alloys have become a hot issue for researchers.…”

A series of as-cast lightweight multicomponent alloys Al(86-x)Mg10Zn2Cu2Six (x=0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2 at.%) were prepared by a vacuum induction furnace with a steel die. With the addition of Si, the reticular white Al-Cu phase deposited were gradually replaced by the gray eutectic Mg-Si phase, while the compressive strength of the alloys increases first and then decreases slowly. It is particularly noteworthy that the compression plasticity also exhibits this trend. When the Si content is 0.9 at.%, the compressive strength reaches its maximum at 779.11 MPa and the compressive plasticity reaches 20.91%. The effect of the addition of Si on the serration behavior of alloy was also studied; we found that the addition of Si introduces a new MgSi phase, and with the change of Si is significantly affects the morphology of the precipitated phase, which affects the serration behavior of the alloys. The comprehensive mechanical properties of the alloy are optimal at the critical point where the serration behavior disappears. In this work, we have provided a method and a composition for the preparation of a low-cost, high-strength, lightweight medium-entropy alloys.

“…Thus, it is highly desirable to keep the thickness of the intermediate compound layer to be as thin as possible [1,8]. Extensive studies have shown that adding small amount of alloying element, such as titanium (Ti), magnesium (Mg), copper (Cu), and rare-earth (RE), etc., to the hot-dip bath could influence the Fe-Al reaction [9][10][11][12][13][14]. According to the result of Heumann et al [15], only 70% atom positions are saturated in the c-axis direction of Fe 2 Al 5 lattice, which means that it is easily to form Fe-Al compound layers as Al atoms diffuse to the surrounding of Fe atoms.…”
