INVESTIGATION OF THE PROPERTIES OF HIGH-ENTROPY ALLOYS AS PROMISING MATERIALS FOR PHYSICAL QUANTITY SENSORS

Abstract

In recent years, high-entropy alloys (HEIs) have attracted considerable attention in the field of materials science due to their characteristic properties and potential applications. Unlike traditional alloys, which typically consist of one or two major elements, these are composed of five or more major elements in nearly equiatomic proportions. This unconventional composition results in high configurational entropy, which gives them good mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties.

Characteristics such as high strength, high wear resistance, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance make wind turbines suitable candidates for a variety of advanced applications. Among these applications, their use in the development of sensors for measuring physical quantities is particularly promising. Sensors are critical components of many technological systems, ranging from industrial automation and environmental monitoring to healthcare and aerospace. The performance and reliability of these converters largely depend on the materials from which they are made. The current research is aimed at analyzing the properties of WECs in order to evaluate their potential as materials for sensors of physical quantities. By understanding the fundamental structural, mechanical, and electrical properties of alloys, it becomes possible to assess their suitability for sensor applications.

In this study, we analyse the potential of high-entropy alloys for applications as an element in sensor systems, focusing on their stability, magnetic properties and electrochemical characteristics. High-entropy alloys are promising materials for various sensor systems, including thermocouples and chemical sensors, due to their high-temperature stability, mechanical strength, and sensitivity for detecting substances such as glucose and nitric oxide. The combination of several metals in alloys creates a synergistic effect that enhances their electrocatalytic properties, making these alloys attractive for technological innovations.
