Abstract
Design and development of novel high entropy alloys (HEAs) having balance magnetic properties with other functional properties are vital for industrial applications of these alloys. In this study, a novel Co35Cr5Fe10Ni30Ti5Al15 HEA was synthesized through mechanical alloying and studied for phase evolution and its effects on magnetic properties with annealing at different temperatures. As-synthesized HEA has a major fcc phase with minor concentrations of bcc and R phases. The as-synthesized HEA is also annealed at different temperatures of 500, 700 and 900°C and found that the phase identity of formed phases maintained after annealing. However, for HEA annealed at 1000°C, slight amount of new σ-phase has formed along with initial phases. Values of Ms and Hc were found to be 75 emu g−1 and 18 Oe for as-synthesized Co35Cr5Fe10Ni30Ti5Al15 HEA. We found that after annealing at different temperatures, magnetic properties of Co35Cr5Fe10Ni30Ti5Al15 HEA show significant improvement. Co35Cr5Fe10Ni30Ti5Al15 HEA annealed at 900°C exhibited good soft magnetic characteristics with high Ms (99 emu g−1), low values of Hc (3.8 Oe) and Mr (0.45 emu g−1), as compared to other samples developed in the present study. Thus, designed and developed 900°C annealed Co35Cr5Fe10Ni30Ti5Al15 HEA can be further used for magnetic switching applications due to the high value of Ms and low value of Mr.

The Bulletin of Materials Science is a bi-monthly journal being published by the Indian Academy of Sciences in collaboration with the Materials Research Society of India and the Indian National Science Academy. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles and rapid communications in all areas of materials science. The journal also publishes from time to time important Conference Symposia/ Proceedings which are of interest to materials scientists. It has an International Advisory Editorial Board and an Editorial Committee. The Bulletin accords high importance to the quality of articles published and to keep at a minimum the processing time of papers submitted for publication.
