First 3D-Printed Nanostructured Alloy is Strong, Ductile

A team of researchers has 3D-printed a dual-phase, nanostructured high-entropy alloy (HEA) that surpasses the strength and ductility of other state-of-the-art additively manufactured materials. The advance may lead to higher-performance components for applications in aerospace, medicine, energy, and transportation. The work was completed by researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the Georgia Institute of Technology.
