Computational design of castable WTaNb-C eutectic refractory medium-entropy composite with ultrahigh strength at 2000°C

open access: yesMaterials Research Letters
We present a novel WTaNb-C eutectic refractory medium-entropy composite with fully lamellar BCC/M2C microstructure, designed via pseudo-binary strategy to resolve the strength-castability trade-off in ultrahigh-temperature materials.
