A series of CoFeNi2W0.5Tax (x = 0-0.6) high entropy alloys (HEAs) were synthesized by arc melting to investigate the alloying effect of Ta element on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the CoFeNi2W0.5 alloy system. Phase constitution, microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloys were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopes (SEM), Vickers hardness and compressive test. It was found that when x = 0, the alloy consists of a single-phase face-centered cubic (FCC) solid solution structure and exhibit excellent ductility, the compressive plastic elongation of which can reach 80% without fracture. While with increasing Ta content, the brittle Co2Ta-type Laves phase appears which leads to a decrease of the plastic strain and an increase of the yield strength, and the Vickers hardness shows an obvious increase from HV 179.5 to HV 753.2.

In order to reveal the effect of Mo addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties, (CoCuFeNi)100-xMox (x = 0, 10, 15, 19, and 25, x values in atomic ratio) high entropy alloys were prepared by vacuum arc-melting. The results showed that with Mo addition, the μ phase formed and serious separation occurred in the high entropy alloys. The content of μ phase increased with the increase in Mo content. The microstructure of the alloys changed from an initial single-phase face-center-cubic (FCC) solid solution structure (x = 0) to a hypoeutectic microstructure (x = 15), then to a full eutectic microstructure (x = 19), and finally to a hypereutectic microstructure (x = 25). Coherent interface between μ phase and FCC phase was observed. The (CoCuFeNi)81Mo19 alloy with fully eutectic microstructures exhibited the highest yield strength of 557 MPa and fracture strength of 767 MPa in tensile tests at room temperature. The fracture surface revealed that the formation of great amounts of the μ phase resulted in the loss of ductility of (CoCuFeNi)100-xMox alloys.

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) present excellent mechanical properties. However, the exploitation of chemical properties of HEAs is far less than that of mechanical properties, which is mainly limited by the low specific surface area of HEAs synthesized by traditional methods. Thus, it is vital to develop new routes to fabricate HEAs with novel three-dimensional structures and a high specific surface area. Herein, we develop a facile approach to fabricate nanoporous noble metal quasi-HEA microspheres by melt-spinning and dealloying. The as-obtained nanoporous Cu30Au23Pt22Pd25 quasi-HEA microspheres present a hierarchical porous structure with a high specific surface area of 69.5 m2/g and a multiphase approximatively componential solid solution characteristic with a broad single-group face-centered cubic XRD pattern, which is different from the traditional single-phase or two-phase solid solution HEAs. To differentiate, these are named quasi-HEAs. The synthetic strategy proposed in this paper opens the door for the synthesis of porous quasi-HEAs related materials, and is expected to promote further applications of quasi-HEAs in various chemical fields.

AbstractHigh-entropy alloys (HEAs) have shown a wide range of promising structural and functional properties. By the application of coating technology, an economical exploitation can be achieved. The high wear and corrosion resistance of HEAs make them particularly interesting for the application as protective coatings. Especially for alloys with a high chromium content, a high corrosion resistance has been revealed. For the current investigations, the equimolar HEA CrFeCoNi with a single-phase face centered cubic structure is considered as a base alloy system. To increase the corrosion resistance as well as the hardness and strength, the influence of the alloying elements aluminum and molybdenum is analyzed. For the current investigations, the high kinetic process high-velocity oxygen fuel thermal spraying (HVOF) has been considered to produce coatings with a low porosity and oxide content. Feedstock is produced by inert gas atomization. The influence of the alloy composition on the microstructure, phase formation and resulting property profile is studied in detail. A detailed analysis of the corrosion resistance and underlying mechanisms is conducted. The pitting and passivation behavior are investigated by potentiodynamic polarization measurements in NaCl and H2SO4 electrolyte. A distinct improvement of the corrosion resistance can be achieved for the alloy Al0.3CrFeCoNiMo0.2.
