The AlCrFeNiMo0.5Tix (x = 0, 0.25, 0.4, 0.5) high entropy alloys were prepared by copper mold suction casting, and the structures and aqueous corrosion behavior of the alloys were investigated in the present study. It shows that all of these alloys possess BCC + B2 structures at various Ti contents, while Ti element is enriched in ordered B2 phase. With increasing Ti content, the passive film becomes more protective. The charge transfer resistance (Rct) value increases from 229 kΩ · cm2 for the AlCrFeNiMo0.5 alloy to 635 kΩ · cm2 for the AlCrFeNiMo0.5Ti0.5 alloy. Meanwhile, the pitting potential (Epit) increases from 90 mV for the AlCrFeNiMo0.5 alloy to 410 mV for the AlCrFeNiMo0.5Ti0.5 alloy. The present results indicate that the corrosion resistance of the AlCrFeNiMo0.5Tix high entropy alloys has been significantly enhanced by Ti additions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
