This study focuses on the successful fabrication of three distinct types of CoCrFeNi high entropy alloy (HEA) coatings through cold spray (CS) technology, with an emphasis on analyzing the impact of varying crucial CS parameters (spraying temperature and the range of powder particle size), on the coating's microstructure and tribological properties. Contrasted with conventional thermal spraying techniques, lower operational temperature in CS safeguards the materials from undergoing oxidation or phase transitions that are typically induced by high-temperature conditions. Additionally, the high-velocity impact of particles onto the substrate within CS process triggers plastic deformation, resulting in the creation of coatings that are characterized by heightened hardness, and greater density. Such coatings exhibit significantly enhanced performance and durability. The cocktail effect observed in CoCrFeNi HEA is reflected in a suite of exceptional properties that markedly surpass those exhibited by traditional alloys. Chiefly, this phenomenon is manifested through the alloy's exceptionally high hardness and dense structure, positioning CoCrFeNi HEA as a promising candidate for applications in high-wear scenarios. Experimental outcomes indicate that when smaller powder particles and higher spraying temperatures are employed, the porosity of CSed CoCrFeNi HEA coatings was observed to decrease by nearly an order of magnitude, concomitant with a 22.46% enhancement in microhardness. This improvement in microhardness translates into a significant reduction of over 72% in the wear rate, underscoring the positive correlation between enhanced microstructural integrity and wear resistance properties. By meticulously tuning spraying temperature and powder particle size, the resulting microstructure can be rendered increasingly dense and refined.
