Abstract
We report the superior oxidation resistance of nano-lamellar CoCrFeNiNbx (x = 0.45, 0.50, 0.55 atom ratio) eutectic high entropy alloy (EHEA) at 700–1100 °C. The as-cast microstructure comprises of nano-lamellar eutectic FCC+Laves phases. The oxidation kinetics followed the parabolic rate in between 700–800 °C, whereas, near-parabolic kinetics is followed at 900 °C. The addition of Nb improves the oxidation and spallation resistance of the EHEAs. A protective outer-oxide layer containing Cr2O3, FeCr2O4-type spinels, whereas, an inner-oxide layer containing Nb2O5, CrNbO4 were formed during oxidation. The mechanism of protection and the superiority of EHEAs as high temperature alloy are explored.
