Abstract Solid solution hardening in high entropy alloys was studied for the Cantor alloy using diffusion couples and nanoindentation. We study a continuous variation of the alloying content and directly correlate the nanoindentation hardness to the local composition up to the phase boundary. The composition dependent hardness is analysed using the Labusch model and the more recent Varvenne model. The Labusch model has been fitted to experimental data and confirms Cr as the most potent strengthening element. For comparison of the experimental hardness and the predicted yield strength of the Varvenne model, a concentration-dependent strain-hardening factor is introduced to account for strain hardening during indentation, which leads to a very good agreement between experiment and model. A study of the input parameters of the Varvenne model, performed by atomistic computer simulations, shows no significant effect of fluctuations in the atomic size misfit volumes or in the local shear modulus to the computed yield strength.

As new generation of high-temperature shape memory alloys, high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have been attracted for strong solid-solution hardened alloys due to their severe lattice distortion and sluggish diffusion. TiPd is the one potential high-temperature shape memory alloys because of its high martensitic transformation temperature above 500 °C. As constituent elements, Zr expected solid-solution hardening, Pt expected increase of transformation temperature, Au expected keeping transformation temperature, and Co expected not to form harmful phase. By changing the alloy composition slightly, two HEAs and two medium entropy alloys (MEAs) were prepared. Only two MEAs, Ti45Zr5Pd25Pt20Au5, and Ti45Zr5Pd25Pt20Co5 had the martensitic transformation. The perfect recovery was obtained in Ti45Zr5Pd25Pt20Co5 during the repeated thermal cyclic test, training, under 200 MPa. On the other hand, the small irrecoverable strain was remained in Ti45Zr5Pd25Pt20Au5 during the training under 150 MPa because of the small solid-solution hardening effect. It indicates that Ti45Zr5Pd25Pt20Co5 is the one possible HT-SMA working between 342 and 450 °C.

A combination of high yield strength (1.1 GPa) and large tensile elongation to failure (28%) is achieved in a HfNbTiV refractory high-entropy alloy by creating modulated nanoscale inhomogeneity in both composition and lattice strain.

This paper reports a study of the mechanical behavior of Ta-W alloys. The results show that tungsten additions increase the yield strength and the rate of work hardening of tantalum. These additions also cause a change in the deformed microstructure from one that is primarily cellular to one that consists mostly of dislocation tangles. It is proposed that the increase in yield strength arises from solid solution hardening and that the increase in the work hardening can be correlated with an increase in the density and arrangement of dislocations present in the material.
