Description

Multi-element refractory high-entropy alloy and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of novel metal materials, in particular to a multi-element refractory high-entropy alloy and a preparation method thereof.
Background
In recent years, the high-entropy alloy breaks through the traditional alloy design concept of single principal element component design, and is a novel multi-principal element metal material mainly designed by configuration entropy, and the excellent physical and chemical properties of the novel multi-principal element metal material attract wide attention. Unlike conventional alloys, high entropy alloys are the result of the co-action of a plurality of principal elements, rather than being unique in that they exhibit the characteristics of a single element, and tend to form a solid solution phase, such as the simple Body Centered Cubic (BCC) or Face Centered Cubic (FCC) phases. The refractory high-mid-entropy alloy (the melting point is more than 2123K) mainly comprises metal elements of IVB (Ti, Zr, Hf), VB (V, Nb, Ta) and VIB (Cr, Mo and W), and is mainly based on metal elements of a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure, so that the refractory high-mid-entropy alloy is mostly a single-phase BCC solid solution phase or a BCC solid solution phase. High entropy alloys are generally defined as alloys containing more than 5 constituent elements, or a mixture entropy of ≥ 1.6R. The refractory high-entropy alloy has the advantages of high melting point, high hardness, corrosion resistance, excellent high-temperature strength and the like, the application temperature of the refractory high-entropy alloy is up to 1373-1593K, the refractory high-entropy alloy is much higher than that of the conventional high-temperature alloy such as Inconel 718 alloy and the like, and the refractory high-entropy alloy has lower elastic modulus and specific modulus compared with nickel-based high-temperature alloy and stainless steel and has potential application prospects in the fields of aerospace (turbines and engine blades), nuclear industry, biomedicine and the like.
The sliding system of the BCC refractory high-entropy alloy at room temperature is far less than that of the high-entropy alloy with an FCC structure, and the alloy generally shows obvious brittleness at room temperature or higher temperature.
