High-entropy alloys are a new class of alloys, and attract much attention due to their unique properties.Since the discovery of a superconducting high-entropy alloy (HEA) in 2014, Bike Units - BMX the materials research on HEA superconductor is a hot topic.We have found that Hf21Nb25Ti15V15Zr24 body-centered-cubic (BCC) HEA is a new superconductor with the superconducting critical temperature Tc of 5.3 K.We briefly discussed the O-ring comparison of cocktail effect of Tc among BCC HEA superconductors.
