Abstract
Some thermodynamic aspects of interaction between Ni–Fe–Co–Cr–Ti–Al high-entropy alloys (HEAs) and cubic boron nitride (cBN) at high temperatures in a medium with and without oxygen are studied. CALPHAD modeling with literature data are used to estimate the temperature dependence of change in the Gibbs energy for the formation of nitrides, borides, and oxides. It is shown that the presence of oxygen essentially changes thermodynamic conditions for the reactions, in particularly, decreases the probability of direct interaction between Ti, Al, and cBN due to the formation of oxide phases. Comparative analysis with reactions of pure metals indicates that Ti and Al in the composition of HEAs have a low activity to agree with CALPHAD calculation results. Experimental high-temperature studied performed by using the method of synchronous thermal analysis fully confirm thermodynamic calculations. The obtained results can be used to develop the compositions of high-entropy alloys for application in cBN based composite materials.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Superhard Materials presents up-to-date results of basic and applied research on production, properties, and applications of superhard materials and related tools. It publishes the results of fundamental research on physicochemical processes of forming and growth of single-crystal, polycrystalline, and dispersed materials, diamond and diamond-like films; developments of methods for spontaneous and controlled synthesis of superhard materials and methods for static, explosive and epitaxial synthesis. The focus of the journal is large single crystals of synthetic diamonds; elite grinding powders and micron powders of synthetic diamonds and cubic boron nitride; polycrystalline and composite superhard materials based on diamond and cubic boron nitride; diamond and carbide tools for highly efficient metal-working, boring, stone-working, coal mining and geological exploration; articles of ceramic; polishing pastes for high-precision optics; precision lathes for diamond turning; technologies of precise machining of metals, glass, and ceramics. The journal covers all fundamental and technological aspects of synthesis, characterization, properties, devices and applications of these materials. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries in the English language.
