POTENTIAL ROLE OF ALCOCRNI HIGH-ENTROPY ALLOYS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHEMICAL INDUSTRY HEAT REACTOR COMPONENTS IN UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

This article explores the potential application of AlCoCrNi-based high-entropy alloys (HEAs) in chemical industry heat reactor components within Uzbekistan's industrial context. High-entropy alloys represent an innovative class of materials characterized by their exceptional mechanical, thermal, and corrosion-resistant properties, making them particularly promising for equipment operating under high-temperature and aggressive environments. The study employs comprehensive literature analysis, comparative material assessment, and technical evaluation to determine the viability of AlCoCrNi HEAs in Uzbekistan's chemical sector. Results indicate that AlCoCrNi HEAs demonstrate superior high-temperature stability, oxidation resistance, and mechanical strength compared to conventional materials, potentially extending reactor service life by 40-60% while enhancing operational safety. The research concludes that strategic implementation of these advanced materials could significantly contribute to Uzbekistan's chemical industry modernization, though requires coordinated efforts in research infrastructure development and international technological collaboration.
