There is little doubt that there is significant potential for high-entropy alloys (HEAs) in cryogenic and aerospace applications. However, given the immense design space for HEAs, there is much more to be explored. This review will focus on four areas of application for HEAs that receive less attention. These focus areas include joining technologies, HEA nanomaterial synthesis, catalysis, and marine applications. The performance of HEAs as a filler metal for welding and brazing as well as their performance as a welded/brazed base metal will be discussed. Various methods for synthesizing HEA nanomaterials are reviewed with specifically highlighted applications in catalysis and energy storage. HEA catalysts, in particular, will be discussed in detail regarding their effectiveness, selectiveness, and stability. Marine applications are explored given the inherent corrosion resistance of HEAs as well as superior antifouling properties that make HEAs an intriguing marine-ready material. |
