The idea of high entropy alloys (HEAs) has attracted interest because the alloys result in solid-solution phases despite containing five or more primary elements with identical or nearly equal atomic fractions and elemental concentrations ranging from five to thirty-five per cent (at%). Hence, High entropy alloys are now employed in several industries, including energy, nuclear, automotive, and aerospace, and are thought to be viable substitutes for conventional materials. In this study, AlCuFeNiSi and AlCuFeNiTi HEAs fabricated via arc melting with different atomic concentrations were examined for their phases and microstructural characteristics after heat treatment, as well as the impact of the Thermo-mechanical process on the nanomechanical, tribological and electrochemical properties for engineering applications. Studying the effect of heat-treatment on the properties of high entropy alloys is important for the control, optimization, and improvement of the properties of high entropy alloys for engineering applications. |
