Abstract

The research effort in high entropy alloys (HEAs) has intensified in the recent years. This is due to the fact that HEAs have a wide range of compositions based on elements used, the number of different elements in a system and the sheer number of compatible elements that exist. HEAs exhibit broader range of superior mechanical and microstructural properties, and this fact points toward many potential applications. The aim of this research is to unify and present the multiple streams of research efforts which have impacted the understanding of HEAs. The information has been included based on its dominant focus areas. Article has been categorized into important aspects based on its effect on the mechanical properties of the alloys. The effect of element compositions, treating conditions and processes on microstructural and mechanical properties has been also considered. In future, better methods and newer technologies will definitely result in better and more reliable materials which will supersede some of the previously existing materials.
