The project is directed at addressing challenges for developing next-generation high-entropy-alloy-based multi-component green (free of toxic substances) and sustainable (rare earth free & minimum critical metal elements) coatings with predictable functionalities, performance and life - aiming at increasing wear resistance by 100%, corrosion/oxidation reThe project is directed at addressing challenges for developing next generation high entropy alloy-based multi component green (free of toxic substances) and sustainable (rare earth free & minimum critical metal elements) coatings with predictable functionalities, performance and life (hardness & wear resistance increased by 50-100%, corrosion resistance increased by 20-40%, and thermal stability & oxidation resistance increased by 30-60%) and effectively reduced use of CRMs by 30-40% by integrating AI/ML underpinned Computational Modelling with Safe and Sustainability by Design framework facilitated by high-throughput characterisation & evaluation. These developments together will lead to a much efficient approach and tool to support the co-design of coating materials and substrate systems, optimisation of PVD processes, and reduced overall new coating system development cycle time by 50-100%, and material savings and waste reductions for developing the new coating systems by at least by 4-5 folds, comparing to traditional experimental trials and error approaches. The advancement of M2DESCO will contribute to combating the loss in EU region caused by corrosion and wear, excellently increase the global profile and competitive edge of EU modelling community and significantly strengthen the competitiveness of EU coating research and business withan European market size of €196 mill in 2020 and €421M in 2026 for anti-corrosion coatings and anti-wear hard coatings respectively thus greatly benefiting the wider manufacturing chain and effectively increasing the global competitiveness and the resilience of EU industry.

该项目旨在解决开发下一代高熵合金多组分绿色（不含有毒物质）和可持续性（不含稀土和最少的关键金属元素）涂层具有可预测的功能、性能和寿命-旨在将耐磨性提高100%，该项目旨在解决开发下一代高熵合金基多组分绿色材料的挑战（不含有毒物质）和可持续性（不含稀土元素和最少的关键金属元素）涂层，具有可预测的功能、性能和寿命（硬度和耐磨性提高50- 100%，耐腐蚀性提高20- 40%，热稳定性和抗氧化性提高了30-60%），并通过将AI/ML支持的计算建模与高通量表征和评估促进的安全和可持续性设计框架相结合，有效地减少了30-40%的CRM使用。这些发展将共同带来一种更有效的方法和工具，以支持涂层材料和基材系统的协同设计，优化PVD工艺，并将整个新涂层系统的开发周期缩短50- 100%，与传统的实验试错方法相比，开发新涂层系统的材料节省和浪费减少至少4-5倍。M2 DESCO的发展将有助于应对欧盟地区因腐蚀和磨损造成的损失，出色地提高欧盟建模界的全球知名度和竞争优势，并显着加强欧盟涂料研究和业务的竞争力，到2020年欧洲市场规模为1.96亿欧元，2026年为4.21亿欧元，用于防腐蚀涂料和防腐蚀涂料。这两种耐磨涂层分别使更广泛的制造链受益，并有效提高了欧盟工业的全球竞争力和韧性。
