Unveiling Entropy‐Driven Hard‐Tough Synergy Mechanisms in High‐Entropy Carbonitride Ceramics

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐entropy ceramics manifested promise for extreme environments, yet their phase stability and mechanical synergy mechanisms remain elusive. Herein, entropy‐difference carbonitrides, including (TaTiV)CN, (TaTiVNb)CN, and (TaTiVNbHf)CN, were designed and consolidated via spark plasma sintering.
