High-entropy diboride powders were produced by a two-step synthesis process consisting of boro/carbothermal reduction followed by solid solution formation. Nominally phase-pure (Hf,Zr,Ti,Ta,Nb)B-2 in a single-phase hexagonal structure had an average particle size of just over 400 nm and contained 0.3 wt% carbon and 0.3 wt% oxygen. The fine particle size was due to the use of high-energy ball milling prior to boro/carbothermal reduction, which led to a relatively low synthesis temperature of 1650 degrees C. Oxygen and carbon contents were minimized by completion of the boro/carbothermal reduction reactions under vacuum. This is the first report of synthesis of a nominally phase pure high-entropy diboride powder from oxides using a two-step process.
