Exploitation of traditional reactor structural materials tends to limits; thus, the development of novel materials is urgent. Alloying has long been used to obtain materials with desirable properties. In recent decades, a new alloying technique that combines multiple principal elements in high concentrations to fabricate new materials, termed high-entropy alloys (HEAs), has gained popularity. Refractory HEAs (RHEAs) consist of several principle refractory elements and are an important subset of HEAs. RHEAs have attracted immense attention owing to their unique mechanical, physical, and chemical properties, particularly their excellent high-temperature mechanical properties and radiation resistance. RHEAs are expected to be utilized in cladding materials for fourth-generation fission reactors and plasma-facing materials for fusion reactors. Combined with representative literature, this paper focuses on mechanical, radiation resistance, and oxidation resistance properties of RHEAs. Further, strengthening and radiation resistance mechanisms of RHEAs are explored, and the development evolution and prospects of RHEAs are proposed.
