Abstract
This study investigated the effect of alloying elements Zr, V, and Si on the corrosion behavior of FeCoNiCr-based high entropy alloys in supercritical water. Adding Zr decreased corrosion resistance owing to the formation of a thinner Cr2O3 outer layer and a mixed Cr2O3 and ZrO2 inner layer. Adding Si formed a complex oxide film with a triple-layer structure with pores and cracks, accelerating corrosion. By contrast, adding V improved corrosion resistance because the formation of a compacted V0.87Cr0.13O2.7 layer inhibited the diffusion of anions and cations. The corrosion mechanisms were also discussed.
