Abstract

NbMoVCrSi_x high-entropy alloy coatings with different Si contents were prepared, and the evolution in microstructure, mechanical properties, and wear behavior of the coatings was investigated comprehensively. The results showed that the coating structure transformed from the body-centered cubic phase to fully amorphous structure. With the trace Si doping, the hardness of the coating improved significantly, which was dominated by the effects of fine grain strengthening and solid solution strengthening. Meanwhile, the average friction coefficient and wear rate were decreased remarkably due to the improved hardness and toughness, and the formation of lubricating tribo-oxide layer containing SiO₂. However, when Si doping was excessive, the comprehensive properties of the coating deteriorated seriously due to the reduced hardness and limited deformation ability.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials (IJRMHM) publishes original research articles concerned with all aspects of refractory metals and hard materials. Refractory metals are defined as metals with melting points higher than 1800 °C. These are tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, tantalum, niobium, hafnium, and rhenium, as well as many compounds and alloys based thereupon. Hard materials that are included in the scope of this journal are defined as materials with hardness values higher than 1000 kg/mm2, primarily intended for applications as manufacturing tools or wear resistant components in mechanical systems. Thus they encompass carbides, nitrides and borides of metals, and related compounds. A special focus of this journal is put on the family of hardmetals, which is also known as cemented tungsten carbide, and cermets which are based on titanium carbide and carbonitrides with or without a metal binder. Ceramics and superhard materials including diamond and cubic boron nitride may also be accepted provided the subject material is presented as hard materials as defined above.
