摘要

Equiatomic FeNiMnSi, FeNiMnCr, and FeNiMnSiCr alloys were fabricated using the powder metallurgy technique. Thermodynamic calculations classified FeNiMnSi and FeNiMnCr as medium-entropy alloys, while FeNiMnSiCr was identified as a high-entropy alloy (HEA). Among these, FeNiMnSiCr exhibited the highest relative density and the most favorable thermodynamic stability (Ω = 5.57, ∆Smix = 13.38 kJ/mol K). X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed a multiphase microstructure with well-dispersed elements. Mechanical testing revealed that FeNiMnSi and FeNiMnSiCr exhibited higher hardness compared with FeNiMnCr. In corrosion studies, FeNiMnSiCr demonstrated the lowest corrosion rates of 0.41 mm/y in 1 M HCl, 0.11 mm/y in 1 M HNO3, and 0.46 mm/y in 1 M H2SO4, confirming its superior chemical resistance. Surface examinations further revealed reduced micro-galvanic attack compared with FeNiMnSi and FeNiMnCr. Overall, these results highlight FeNiMnSiCr as a promising HEA with a balanced combination of mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.
