Abstract:

In the present study, two newly developed non-equiatomic high entropy Al10Cr12Mn28Fe(50-x)Ni(x) alloys (x= 20 & 15 at%, namely: Ni20 & Ni15, respectively) are investigated. The studied HEAs were designed based on thermodynamic principles to maintain high ductility and improve strength. Ingots were prepared using arc-melting then microstructure examinations and mechanical properties for the as-cast alloys were done. The mechanical properties were enhanced for the as-cast material, compared with previously introduced HEAs of the same system, namely Al5Cr12Mn28Fe35Ni20, (Al5) and Al10Cr12Mn23Fe35Ni20, (Al10). Al10Cr12Mn28Fe30Ni20 (Ni20) HEA generally shows the highest compressive yield strength which was improved by ∼7% when compared with previously introduced Al10.
