“…In fact, several NC metallic alloys have shown higher thermal stability with respect to their single-component counterparts. Along these lines, binary [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ], ternary [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ], and higher order systems have been investigated [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ].…”
