“…These features collectively contribute to their excellent mechanical properties. − Furthermore, the chemical inhomogeneity in HEAs can elicit unique mechanical responses, such as superelongation and a delayed inverse Hall-Petch effect . Refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) are a kind of alloy that can maintain excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures. − Taking the NbMoTaW and NbMoTaWV RHEAs produced by Senkov et al via vacuum arc melting as an example, they are composed of refractory metal elements (i.e., Nb, Mo, Ta, W, and V) with equal atomic concentration, which belong to the VB and VIB groups in the periodic table, with similar atomic size and high melting points. It has been found that they can maintain outstanding mechanical, chemical, and physical properties over a wide range of temperatures, such as high yield strength, , high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and radiation resistance, etc.…”
