A novel concept of developing multi-principal elements, or compositional complex alloys is referred as high-entropy alloys (HEAs). This review addresses the role of entropy in alloying additions along with the effect of various elements listed in the periodic table in forming the HEAs. Phase formation rules and the associated parameters along with their significance are discussed. The physical metallurgy technique is elaborated with reference to the high-entropy effect, severe lattice distortion effect, sluggish diffusion effect, and cocktail effects. Various types of HEAs such as light weight HEAs, nanoprecipitate HEAs, ultrafine-grained HEAs, dual-phase HEAS and TRIP/TWIN HEAs are discussed. Further, the effects of mechanical alloying in HEAs are presented. Finally, the microstructural effects and mechanical properties of HEAs are addressed with reference to the published literature.

The demand for new aluminum alloy–based metal matrix composites with combinations of novel reinforcements, processed through innovative methods are very much needed for critical engineering applications. With this perspective, the current research work is aimed at the development of Al 6061 composites reinforced with two-dimensional Graphene nanoflake-encapsulated SiC. Ultrasonic liquid processing method is used to disperse the Graphene flake and the mixture is ball milled by adding SiC to achieve the encapsulation. Subsequently, the Al 6061 powder is added to the milled mixture and consolidated through uniaxial vacuum hot press followed by microwave hybrid sintering. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, hardness, density, and microstructure analysis were carried out on developed composites. Raman analysis was carried out to analyze the distortion on Graphene physical structure during various processing stages. Further, effects on novel combination of material with combined processing approach on flexural and tribological behavior have been analyzed.

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) using Aluminum Alloy 2900 and 2024 as matrix material with silicon carbide and alumina as reinforcement have been fabricated through powder metallurgy route for investigation. The average particle size of matrix metal and reinforcement material considered in this research is 10 µm. AA-SiC and AA-Al2O3 composites with 3, 6, and 9 weight percentage (wt%) of SiC and Al2O3 are fabricated. The Rockwell hardness and Compressive strength of AA-SiC and AA-Al2O3 composites were found to increase with an increase in the wt% of reinforcement when the samples were microwave sintered. AA 2024 with 6 wt% Al2O3 reinforced MMCs samples were exhibiting improved hardness results, strength behavior, and stress-strain behavior when the samples are microwave sintered. AA 2900 with 6 wt% Al2O3 exhibited good ductility and formability properties. Good Microstructural bonding was observed in the MMCs, which is attributed to finer Al2O3 particulate used as reinforcement and the microwave sintering.
