"safer and cheaper... instead of mixing ingredients and heating them to high temperature, mix in liquid gallium first... allows for creating an evenly mixed HEA-NP... heated to 923K... HEA-NPs variety composed of different metals and found that they were evenly mixed. They also conducted compositional and structural analysis of the materials and found them to be on a par with those made using the conventional method... synthesize wide variety HEA-NPs and others"
