Two kinds of high-entropy alloy coatings of FeCrNiCoCu and FeCrNiCoCuB were deposited on AZ91 magnesium alloy substrate using high velocity arc spraying technology. Microstructure and general mechanical properties of the coatings were investigated with Scanning Electronic Microscope (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction instrument (XRD), microhardness tester and strength bond tester. The results show that the two kinds of coatings exhibit compact layered microstructure and the phase lattice type are both FCC, the microhardness of the FeCrNiCoCu and FeCrNiCoCuB coatings are 414HV0.1 and 342HV0.1 respectively, the bond strength are 36.9 MPa and 33.6 MPa respectively.

An automatic high velocity arc spraying process was used to deposit a type of FeCrBSiMoNbW amorphous/nanocrystalline coating with substrate of AZ91 magnesium alloy. The microstructure of the coating was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). The coating is about 250μm in thickness with low porosity and oxids. The results show that the microstructure of the coating can be classified into two regions, namely, a full amorphous phase region and homogeneous dispersion of α-Fe (Cr) nanocrystals with 30-80 nm in a residual amorphous region. Mechanical properties, such as nano-hardness, elastic modulus, were analyzed. The experimental results show that the coating has high nano-hardness and elastic modulus. The friction and wear experiments were operated on UMT-2 micro friction tester. The relative wear resistance of the FeCrBSiMoNbW coating is about 2 times higher than that of the conventional 3Cr13 coating under the same conditions. The main wear mechanism of the amorphous/nanocrystalline coating is the typical brittle spalling.

Ni-Cr-Si-Al-Ta resistive thin films were prepared on glass and Al2O3substrates by DC magnetron cosputtering from targets of Ni0.35-Cr0.25-Si0.2-Al0.2casting alloy and Ta metal. Electrical properties and microstructures of Ni-Cr-Si-Al-Ta films under different sputtering powers and annealing temperatures were investigated. The phase evolution, microstructure, and composition of Ni-Cr-Si-Al-Ta films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). When the annealing temperature was set to 300°C, the Ni-Cr-Si-Al-Ta films with an amorphous structure were observed. When the annealing temperature was at 500°C, the Ni-Cr-Si-Al-Ta films crystallized into Al0.9Ni4.22, Cr2Ta, and Ta5Si3phases. The Ni-Cr-Si-Al-Ta films deposited at 100 W and annealed at 300°C which exhibited the higher resistivity 2215 μΩ-cm with −10 ppm/°C of temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR).

A series of refractory high-entropy alloys VTaTiMoAlx with x=0,0.2,0.6,1.0 were designed and produced by vacuum arc melting. The effect of added Al elements on the microstructure and mechanical properties of refractory high-entropy alloys were investigated. The X-ray diffraction results showed that all the high-entropy alloys consist of simple BCC solid solution. SEM indicated that the microstructure of VTaTiMoAlx changes from equiaxial dendritic-like structure to typical dendrite structure with the addition of Al element. The composition of different regions in the alloys are obtained by energy dispersive spectroscopy and shows that Ta, Mo elements are enriched in the dendrite areas, and Al, Ti, V are enriched in inter-dendrite areas. The yield strength and compress strain reach maximum (σ0.2=1221MPa, ε=9.91%) at x=0, and decrease with the addition of Al element at room temperature. Vickers hardness of the alloys improves as the Al addition.

Alloying with V and Ti elements effectively improves the strength of WMoTaNb refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) at elevated temperatures. However, their effects on the oxidation resistance of WMoTaNb RHEAs are unknown, which is vitally important to their application at high temperatures. In this work, the effect of V and Ti on the oxidation behavior of WMoTaNb RHEA at 1000 °C was investigated using a thermogravimetric system, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The oxidation of all alloys was found to obey a power law passivating oxidation at the early stage. The addition of V aggravates the volatility of V2O5, MoO3 and WO3, and leads to disastrous internal oxidation. The addition of Ti reduces the mass gain in forming the full coverage of passivating scale and prolongs the passivation duration of alloys.

AbstractFeCrBAlMo coating was deposited on an AISI 20 steel substrate by high velocity arc spraying (HVAS). Compared with FeCrBSiMo coating and pristine AISI 20 steel, the microstructure and high temperature oxidation behavior of FeCrBAlMo coating were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Meanwhile, the bonding strength of the coatings was also measured. The results indicated that both coatings were composed of α(Fe,Cr) and Fe

In this paper, we studied the element diffusion behaviors of the multi-principal CoCrFeNi high entropy alloy in molten Al at 700°C. Microstructure, structure and microhardness in the diffusion interfaces of CoCrFeNi and Al are studied by the X-ray diffraction, the scanning electron microscopy, the energy spectrometry, and the microhardness tester. The results showed that a complex chemical reaction occurred at the interface between the high-entropy alloy and the Al. A mixture of FCC + BCC solid solution layer was first formed. Then a bulk Al13Cr2 compound formed near the Al of the solid solution layer. With the increase of dipping time, the thickness of the solid solution layer remained unchanged, and the compounds gradually changed into spheres distributed in the Al matrix. The formation of BCC structure makes the hardness of the solid solution layer up to 450HV, and the existence of the compound also increases the hardness of the Al matrix significantly.

Due to the promising properties of high entropy alloy, TiVCrAlSi high entropy alloy coating was prepared on Ti-6Al-4V alloy surface by laser cladding. The microstructure and phase analysis of as-cast TiVCrAlSi alloy and laser clad coating were characterized by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The results indicate that as-cast TiVCrAlSi alloy is mainly composed of (Ti,V)5Si3 and bcc phase. The laser clad coating is metallurgically bonded to the substrate with few pores and cracks. Laser clad TiVCrAlSi coating is also composed of (Ti,V)5Si3 and bcc phases.
