Abstract
The influence of copper addition on the structure and selected properties of AlCoCrFeNiSi0.5Cux high-entropy alloys is described. Slowly cooled ingots were prepared by induction melting, and the samples in the form of plates were obtained by pressure casting. The conducted structural studies confirmed the presence of BCC/B2 phase. Microsegregation in the ingots was associated with the formation of intermetallic Cr3Si and Fe5Si3 phases. An increase in the cooling rate stopped segregation by reducing the mobility of Cr and Si. The hyperfine magnetic field distributions indicated the formation of the BCC Fe(Co,Ni,Si,Cr) solid solution for alloys in the form of plates. The lowest corrosion-current density (0.04 μA/cm2) in 3.5%-NaCl solution was obtained for the plate with the lowest copper content. The dominated aluminum surface states for the post-corrosive plates highlighted the binding energies of Al2O3. A tendency of reduced coercivity with increased copper content was observed. The positive effect of copper addition on wear resistance was confirmed for the AlCoCrFeNiSi0.5Cu0.1 alloy.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Civil and Mechanical Engineering (ACME) publishes both theoretical and experimental original research articles which explore or exploit new ideas and techniques in three main areas: structural engineering, mechanics of materials and materials science.
The aim of the journal is to advance science related to structural engineering focusing on structures, machines and mechanical systems. The journal also promotes advancement in the area of mechanics of materials, by publishing most recent findings in elasticity, plasticity, rheology, fatigue and fracture mechanics.
The third area the journal is concentrating on is materials science, with emphasis on metals, composites, etc., their structures and properties as well as methods of evaluation.
In addition to research papers, the Editorial Board welcomes state-of-the-art reviews on specialized topics. All such articles have to be sent to the Editor-in-Chief before submission for pre-submission review process. Only articles approved by the Editor-in-Chief in pre-submission process can be submitted to the journal for further processing. Approval in pre-submission stage doesn''t guarantee acceptance for publication as all papers are subject to a regular referee procedure.
