Abstract:Multicomponent alloys without a base element, also known as highly entropic alloys (HEAs), are of great interest for research. The microstructure of the Fe 20 Ni 20 Co 20 Cu 20 Al 20 alloy in a cast, annealed, and deformed state, as well as its mechanical properties and hot deformation ability, is investigated in this article. This alloy is a typical representative of the high-entropy alloy family. Samples are melted in a vacuum induction furnace in an argon atmosphere and then cast into a copper mold. Differe… Show more
“…The formation of the third phase and, most importantly, the transition of the disordered bcc A2 lattice to B2 are probably the reason for the higher hardness of HEA 4 in the annealed state. Three solid solution phases (fcc1, fcc2, bcc) were also found in HEA 1 [25].…”

“…The hardness of HEA 2 and HEA 4 is much lower than that of HEA 1 (395 HV) [25]. The high hardness of HEA 3 is determined by the presence of chromium, possibly also due to the ordering of B2-type phases or the sigma phase [27].…”

“…The composition of the alloys is given in Table 1. The previously investigated alloy HEA 1 is given for comparison [25].…”
This work investigates the effect of chemical composition on the microstructure and properties of cast high-entropy alloys, and optimal conditions for homogenization annealing. The investigation is performed on alloys of the following compositions:
