Single-phase high-entropy alloys and medium-entropy alloys (MEAs) with face-centered-cubic (FCC) structures have attracted considerable attention owing to their exceptional strength and ductility at cryogenic temperatures by performing twinning and martensitic transformations. In this study, a series of novel MEAs were developed (Cr12Ni12MnxFe76?x, x = 12, 16, 20) based on a thermodynamic approach. The Cr12Ni12Mn16Fe60 MEA was discovered to possess a unique combination of excellent strength (~ 1050 MPa) and ductility (~ 86%) at cryogenic temperatures. Through experimental assessment and thermodynamic modeling, the strength–ductility synergy was quantitatively demonstrated to be derived from the interplay among a series of plasticity mechanisms. In addition, a model was proposed for evaluating the stacking fault energy of Cr-Ni-Mn-Fe MEAs at different temperatures. This work demonstrates an efficient and novel strategy for developing high-strength and high-ductility alloys with single-phase FCC structures.
