Light Alloys — From Traditional to Innovative Technologies

Abstract: Selection of materials with the expected, application-dependent characteristics constitutes a very important point in any industrial application. In the automotive and aeronautical industries, the current tendency is to use light metals and their alloys for production of various components. For example, some of the problems related to fuel consumption and weight reduction could be partially solved by using such alloys as an alternative to traditional iron-based alloy components. Due to their very attractive pr… Show more

“…Hence, the focus of this paper is on the synthesis of thin films based on high-entropy AlCoCrFeNi x alloys and high-entropy (AlCoCrFeNi x )N nitrides [3][4][5][6][7], as well as on their characteristics. High entropy alloys are identified based on two definitions, namely, the Coatings 2022, 12, 1211 2 of 12 chemical elemental composition [8] on one hand, and the magnitude of systems entropy [9] on the other.…”

“…In recent years, increasingly restrictive regulations regarding air pollution [1] have been imposing reductions on fuel consumption and emissions, thus leading to the demand for lightweight vehicle production [2]. As a result, the increasing trend in light alloy usage, namely Al and Mg-based, for the production of structural components underwent major developments [3]. Moreover, conventional alloys have reached their limits concerning their mechanical properties.…”

“…It is more or less impossible to ind such material existing naturally. This type of situation has led engineers to explore diferent production techniques that produce the desired conlicting properties [1]. At times, two diferent materials may be combined, with each having one of the required properties.…”
