Abstract

In this study, we designed four groups of A-substituted medium-entropy perovskites, synthesized (Ba0.4Sr0.4Ca0.1La0.1)ZrO3, a non-equimolar medium-entropy perovskite, and studied its microstructural uniformity. The medium entropy of these perovskites imparts unique mechanical and thermal properties. Compared to pure BaZrO3, the cold moduli of rupture of the four samples improved by 164.29%, 121.22%, 91.49%, and 81.87%, respectively, and the relative density increased from 69.47% to over 90%. The thermal conductivities of these materials were lower than those of conventional low-thermal-conductivity perovskite materials, with a minimum value of 1.513 W/(m·K). The high strengths and low thermal conductivities of these novel perovskite materials could provide vast opportunities for various future applications.
