Abstract
High-entropy alloys have attracted increasingly interest due to their unique compositions, microstructures and mechanical properties. Additive manufacturing has been recognized as a promising technology to fabricate the high-entropy alloys in the recent years. The purpose of this paper is to review the current research progress in high-entropy alloys by additive manufacturing process. It will first highlight the important theory of the high-entropy alloys. The next aspect is to summarize current additive manufacturing methods applied for the high entropy alloys. At last, the correlation between the microstructures and the mechanical properties of the high-entropy alloys will be examined and discussed.
