Theoretical prediction of high melting temperature for a Mo–Ru–Ta–W HCP multiprincipal element alloy
Abstract While rhenium is an ideal material for rapid thermal cycling applications under high temperatures, such as rocket engine nozzles, its high cost limits its widespread use and prompts an exploration of viable cost-effective substitutes. In prior work, we identified a promising pool of candida...
