HIGH-ENTROPY ALLOY AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18376624 titled 'HIGH-ENTROPY ALLOY AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure relates to a high-entropy alloy and a manufacturing method therefor, specifically focusing on an alloy with a multi-element matrix and Cu, having a face-centered cubic (FCC) phase for increased hardness, strength, and lubricity.
- High-entropy alloy with multi-element matrix and Cu
- FCC-based single phase for greater hardness and strength
- High lubricity for improved performance
Potential Applications
The high-entropy alloy with enhanced properties can be used in various industries such as aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing for components requiring high strength, hardness, and lubricity.
Problems Solved
1. Improved mechanical properties compared to existing transition metal alloys 2. Enhanced lubricity for reduced friction and wear in applications
Benefits
1. Increased hardness and strength 2. Improved lubricity for reduced friction 3. Potential for longer-lasting components
Potential Commercial Applications
"High-Entropy Alloy with Enhanced Properties for Aerospace and Automotive Applications"
Possible Prior Art
Prior research on high-entropy alloys with different elemental compositions and phases, but not specifically focusing on a Cu-containing alloy with an FCC-based single phase.
Unanswered Questions
How does the addition of Cu contribute to the properties of the high-entropy alloy?
The abstract mentions the inclusion of Cu in the alloy, but it does not elaborate on the specific role or benefits of Cu in enhancing the properties of the alloy.
What manufacturing methods are used to achieve the desired FCC-based single phase in the high-entropy alloy?
The abstract mentions a specific phase structure for the alloy, but it does not detail the manufacturing processes or techniques employed to ensure the formation of the FCC-based single phase.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to a high-entropy alloy and a manufacturing method therefor, and in particular, a high-entropy alloy and a manufacturing method therefor that comprises a multi-element alloy matrix and Cu, and comprises an alloy having a face-centered cubic (FCC)-based phase, such that the high-entropy alloy may have greater hardness and strength than an existing transition metal alloy while maintaining a FCC-based single phase, and has high lubricity.
