摘要
In recent years,high-entropy alloys(HEAs)have become a research hotspot in materials community,and great progress has been made in exploring various high-performance HEAs.As a special class,the light-weight refractory high-entropy alloys(RHEAs)own both excellent high-temperature comprehensive properties and low density and have accordingly attracted more and more attention.In this paper,we presented a comprehensive review of the recent progress and status in light-weight RHEAs.Based on an exhausting search of the literature reports,one strategy in terms of phase numbers after preparation was first proposed to classify the light-weight RHEAs into three categories.Then,the status on the fundamental thermodynamic and thermophysical data/databases,computational approaches for alloy designing,and preparation/fabrication techniques of light-weight RHEAs was introduced one after another.After that,the progress on mechanical properties and oxidation/corrosion/wear behaviors of light-weight RHEAs at room and high temperatures was summarized.Finally,the conclusions of this review were drawn.By pointing out the shortcomings of the current research,the follow-up development directions in the field of light-weight RHEAs were also given.
