Alloyed pleasure
I occasionally think of one thing: is Physically Metallurgy nowadays really much more advanced than Alchemy in medieval times?
Take a look at the definition for Alchemy:
The medieval forerunner of chemistry, based on the supposed transformation of matter, esp. that of base metals into gold.
A process by which paradoxical results are achieved or incompatible elements combined with no obvious rational explanation.
A seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination.
If you are familiar with the alloy design for high-entropy alloys (or amorphous alloys), hopefully you will see the point that I try to make here.
Nevertheless, we enjoy the alloyed pleasure, and that's why we research on complex concentrated alloys, mainly high-entropy alloys.
