Stainless steel (STS) has good strength and corrosion resistance. However, it is not suitable for use in deep water because it is vulnerable to low-temperature brittleness. High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are suitable for use in the deep sea because they have low-temperature twins and passivation layers...
