AlCrFeNiCu High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) Spherical Powder Description
AlCrFeNiCu High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) Spherical Powder is an advanced material consisting of five principal elements: aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu), blended in nearly equal atomic percentages. This formulation creates a high-entropy alloy (HEA) characterized by multiple principal elements randomly distributed within its crystal lattice structure, resulting in superior performance characteristics that exceed those of conventional alloy systems.
The powder features a precisely engineered spherical morphology that provides optimal flow characteristics, making it particularly suitable for precision manufacturing processes including additive manufacturing (3D printing) and thermal spray coating applications.
