| Abstract Scope |
High throughput and autonomous research and development each hold great promise to dramatically accelerate the field of HEAs. However, properties cannot be quickly measured on material that cannot be quickly made. Bulk samples are required to characterize most of the important properties for structural materials, and laboratory-scale bulk synthesis methods such as arc-melting rely heavily on tedious manual operations that have changed little in the past century. Additive manufacturing shows potential to accelerate material synthesis, but procuring powder and establishing defect-free deposition parameters for new alloy compositions are two significant barriers. A 3-day workshop was recently held to brainstorm approaches to dramatically accelerate the primary synthesis of bulk, metallic structural materials. Here, we describe the insights, ideas, and recommendations from that workshop that are essential for the rapid synthesis of complex, high-performance structural materials, including HEAs. |
