Definition
Four core effects
Typical properties
Processing routes
7
Definition
Conventional (low- and medium-entropy) alloys
1-3 principal components with 1 or more minor
components
Steels, aluminium alloys...
High-entropy alloys
5-13 principal components
(Not the only definition, they can also be defined
according to their configurational entropy)
AlCoCrFeNi, AlMo0.5NbTa0.5TiZr...
4. Cocktail effect
Properties of HEAs not
average of those of
constituent elements
Interaction between
constituing elements
and lattice distortion will
affect properties
AlxCoCrCuFeNi
12
Interesting Properties
Most properties researched has been for
some derivations of the Al-Co-Cr-Cu-Fe-Ni
system
Some research on refractory systems
(Often melted and cast)
13
Strength
The Al-Co-Cr-Cu-Fe-Ni system
Phase constitution varies with Al
content
Strength dependent on the structure
Retain strength at elevated
temperature, especially fcc type alloys
Additional alloying elements (Ti,Mo,Mn,
Nb,Si) also affect the phase
composition
BCC
FCC + BCC
FCC
14
Strength
Refractory alloys
Fatigue
Limited research
One FCC type system
Al0.5CoCrCuFeNi
Wear
Mainly Al-Co-Cr-Cu-Fe-Ni
system
Not linear with hardness
as opposed to for ferrous
alloys
Type of wear dependent
on constituents (and
crystal structure)
17
Oxidation
[Microstructure and wear behavior of AlxCo1.
5CrFeNi1.5Tiy high-entropy alloys]
Corrosion
Varying corrosion properties, in both H2SO4 and NaCl
[Alloying and Processing Effects on the Aqueous Corrosion Behavior of High-Entropy Alloys]
19
Thermal Properties
AlxCoCrFeNi
20
Processing
Casting
Most common processing
route
Vacuum arc melting or
vacuum induction melting
Copper mold casting
Microstructure depends on
cooling-rate, heattreatments, forging
21
High-Entropy Alloys
Powder metallurgy
More homogeneous
Good when having a wide
range of evaporation
temperatures
