Abstract

This is a PDF file of an article that has undergone enhancements after acceptance, such as the addition of a cover page and metadata, and formatting for readability, but it is not yet the definitive version of record. This version will undergo additional copyediting, typesetting and review before it is published in its final form, but we are providing this version to give early visibility of the article.

Control of the Microstructure in a Al5Co15Cr30Fe25Ni25 High Entropy Alloy through Thermo-Mechanical and Thermal Treatments

“…Extensive work regarding the influence of thermo-mechanical processing and thermal treatments in these multiphase fcc-based HEAs is currently in progress as a way for maximizing their strengths [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. On the contrary, less attention has been dedicated to thermomechanical processing of fcc-based single-phase HEAs because their mechanical properties are lower than those of multiphase fcc-based HEAs.…”

On the microstructure and mechanical behaviour of the Cr2Fe2NiCo0.67Cu0.67Ti0.33 alloy during homogenisation

“…However, various types of complex phases such as σ , μ, and Laves are also found that can affect the strength and ductility of HEAs [6][7][8]. Appropriate processing routes can be utilised to optimise the dimension, distribution, and shape of these brittle and hard precipitates to reach the desired mechanical properties [9,10].…”
