It depends what you mean by commercially interesting. There’s loads of interest in aerospace (for high temp corrosion resistant structural components) and catalysis but these alloys are pretty much across the board at a relatively low level of technical readiness. It’s developed enough that there’s significant industry R&D and not just academic and government research, but I don’t think there’s really wide-scale deployment yet of alloys with 4+ principal elements
