“…However, most of the authors reported attractive results such as high strength and hardness [ 22 , 23 , 43 , 44 , 45 ], high-temperature oxidation resistance [ 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 ], high corrosion resistance [ 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 ], high temperature wear resistance [ 21 , 27 , 41 , 50 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 ], unique electrical and magnetic properties [ 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 ] and higher biocompatibility [ 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 ]. Owing to these superior combinations of mechanical and thermal properties, high-entropy coatings (HECs) have been proposed as a prominent solution to mitigate high-temperature tribological issues [ 41 , 56 , 64 , 67 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 ].…”
