Development of High-Entropy Shape-Memory Alloys: Structure and Properties

Amongst functional materials, shape-memory alloys occupy a special place. Discovered in the beginning of 1960th in XX century, these alloys attracted quite an attention because of the possibility to restore significant deformation amounts at certain stress–temperature conditions due to the martensit...

description Amongst functional materials, shape-memory alloys occupy a special place. Discovered in the beginning of 1960th in XX century, these alloys attracted quite an attention because of the possibility to restore significant deformation amounts at certain stress–temperature conditions due to the martensitic diffusionless phase transformation involved in a process. It was possible to exploit not only the so-called ‘shape-memory’ effect, but also superelasticity and high damping capacity. Over the years, more than 10 000 patents on shape-memory alloys were filed, appreciating not only the possibility to exploit energy transformation to ensure the response (feedback) at the change in independent thermodynamic parameters (temperature, stress, pressure, electric or magnetic field, etc.), but the significant work output as well. Applications ranged from different gadgets to automotive, aerospace industries, machine building, civil construction, etc. Unfortunately, the structural and functional fatigue restricted successful business applications to the medical sector with nitinol shape-memory alloy (different implants, stents, cardiovascular valves, etc.). Emerging high-entropy shape-memory alloys can be considered as a chance to overcome fatigue problems of existing industrial shape-memory alloys due to their specific structure that ensures superior resistance to irreversible plastic deformation.
