Abstract

A methodology is developed which extends the combinatorial approaches to structural materials research and development. This high-efficiency methodology employs diffusion couples and “diffusion multiples” to create large variations (libraries) of compositions in bulk samples for fast and systematic surveys of bulk properties. These composition libraries coupled with microanalytical techniques such as electron probe microanalysis, electron backscatter diffraction analysis, and nanoindentation tests can be used for efficient surveys of phases, equilibria, diffusion coefficients, precipitation kinetics, properties, and composition–phase–property relations (such as solution hardening and strengthening effect) for accelerated design of multicomponent alloys.
