Abstract

The role of O in the precipitation behavior at high temperatures of the equiatomic body-centered cubic (bcc) HfNbTaTiZr high-entropy alloy remains unclear and hence is investigated in this work. We employed transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography to reveal structural and compositional evolutions of precipitation in HfNbTaTiZr upon isothermal aging at 1200 °C. Due to the presence of O in the atmosphere, a Zr-Hf-rich hexagonal closed-packed (hcp) phase precipitates from the bcc matrix after 200 h. Due to the gradual uptake of O by the alloy from 200 h to 500 h, the Ti and O concentrations of the hcp phase increase. This results in the formation of an ordered phase in the hcp phase with a structure similar to Ti₃O, whose number density and size slightly increase with time. As the hcp phase is increasingly reinforced by oxygen solutes and oxide precipitates, it becomes harder.

期刊介绍： Scripta Materialia is a LETTERS journal of Acta Materialia, providing a forum for the rapid publication of short communications on the relationship between the structure and the properties of inorganic materials. The emphasis is on originality rather than incremental research. Short reports on the development of materials with novel or substantially improved properties are also welcomed. Emphasis is on either the functional or mechanical behavior of metals, ceramics and semiconductors at all length scales.
