Publication date: September 2018 Source: Vacuum, Volume 155 Author(s): Yongxing Chen, Sheng Zhu, Xiaoming Wang, Baijun Yang, Zhiqiang Ren, Guofeng Han, Shu Wen The work prepared Al 0·4 CoCu 0·6 Ni(Si 0.2 )Ti x (Si 0 Ti x (x ≤ 1.0) and Si 0.2 Ti x (x ≤ 0.5)) high entropy alloys (HEAs) with high strength and excellent plasticity by optimizing the added ratio of Ti and rapid cooling, discussed the effects of Ti and cooling rate on HEAs' microstructures and mechanical properties. The results showed that arc melted and copper injected Si 0 Ti x HEAs' phase structures changed gradually from “fcc + L1 2 (Si 0 Ti 0.25 )” to “fcc + L1 2 +minor bcc (Si 0 Ti 0.5 )” and finally to “fcc + L1 2 +bcc + Ni 3 Ti-type phase (Si 0 Ti 0.75 , Si 0 Ti 1.0 )”. But they transformed from “fcc + L1 2 +bcc + Ni 16 Ti 6 Si 7 -type phase (Si 0·2 Ti 0.25 )” to “fcc + L1 2 +bcc + AlNi 2 Ti-type + Ni 16 Ti 6 Si 7 -type phase (Si 0·2 Ti 0.5 )” for Si 0.2 Ti x HEAs. The micro-hardness of arc melted and copper injected HEAs gradually increased compared with Si 0 Ti 0 matrix HEA and that of copper injected HEAs were larger than arc melted HEAs (except Si 0 Ti 0.5 ). The compressive properties of Si 0 Ti 0.25 , Si 0 Ti 0.5 and Si 0·2 Ti 0.25 HEAs were relatively better, in which, the yield strengths of copper injected Si 0 Ti 0.25 , Si 0 Ti 0.5 and Si 0·2 Ti 0.25 HEAs were 2.7, 2.9 and 4.8 times than that of arc melted Si 0 Ti 0 matrix HEA (295 MPa), the fracture strain rates of the corresponding HEAs were 47.1%, 22.4% and 13.5% respectively. It introduced three strengthening mechanisms of solid solution strengthening, trace phase transformation and fine grain strengthening and realized HEAs' strength-ductility balance.
