A Metallic Alloy That is Tough and Ductile at Cryogenic Temperatures
Berkeley CA (SPX) Sep 10, 2014 - A new concept in metallic alloy design - called "high-entropy alloys" - has yielded a multiple-element material that not only tests out as one of the toughest on record, but, unlike most materials, the toughness as well as the strength and ductility of this alloy actually improves at cryogenic temperatures. This multi-element alloy was synthesized and tested through a collaboration of researcher ... more
