High temperature oxidation resistance of AlCoCrFeNiCu0.25W0.1 high-entropy alloy
摘要
In this study, the effect of W and Cu alloying on microstructure, phase composition and high-temperature oxidation resistance of an as-cast AlCoCrFeNiCu0.25W0.1 high-entropy alloy (HEA) is investigated. The as-cast AlCoCrFeNiCu0.25W0.1 HEA exhibits a dual-phase microstructure consisting of adjacent layers of Cr- and Fe-rich FCC and Al- and Ni-rich BCC phases. It was found that Cu is incorporated into FCC and BCC solid solutions, while W is partially incorporated into FCC and mainly released as (Fe,Cr)2W Laves phase. AlCoCrFeNiCu0.25W0.1 HEA exhibited a parabolic oxidation behavior at 1000 °C for 30 h with a maximum specific mass gain of 0.625 mg/cm2.
