The effect of nanometer phase SiC addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Al_0.6CrFe₂Ni₂high entropy alloys

Effect of TiO2 nano-ceramic particles on microstructure and mechanical properties of Al0.4CoCrFe2Ni2 high-entropy alloy

“…Therefore, the current studies mostly focus on how to maximize its strength while retaining its high plasticity [8][9][10][11][12][13] . In recent years, researchers have found that the mechanical properties of HEAs can be significantly improved by introducing ceramic particles (e.g., carbides, oxides and borides) into the alloy matrix [14][15][16][17][18][19] . The Ti(C, N)-TiB 2 [20] , WC [21] ,…”

Microstructure, Mechanical, and Electrochemical Properties of SiC Particle Reinforced CoCrFeNiCu High-Entropy Alloy Coatings

“…Among the various ceramic reinforcement particles, SiC was an excellent ceramic reinforcement due to its high hardness, outstanding wear resistance, excellent thermal conductivity, and high temperature oxidation resistance, which were commonly selected as strengthening phase in metallic materials. Qu et al [13] investigated the effect of nano-SiC content addition on the microstructures and mechanical properties of Al 0.6 CrFe 2 Ni 2 high entropy alloy which were prepared by a vacuum arc melting furnace. This particular study revealed that the Cr 7 C 3 particles were found in the grain boundaries due to the decomposition of SiC in high temperature, and the Cr 7 C 3 particles can improve the mechanical properties of as-cast Al 0.6 CrFe 2 Ni 2 HEA without reducing the plasticity effectively.…”
