Composition space of PtIrPdRhRu high entropy alloy nanoparticles synthesized by solvothermal reactions†
Abstract
High entropy alloy (HEA) nanoparticles hold promise in heterogeneous catalysis, and recently, simple and benign solvothermal synthesis was achieved for the equimolar PtIrPdRhRu. Here we experimentally explore the available composition space in this system, and we find that single-phase products can be obtained at significant deviations from the equimolar case.
