A detailed analysis of phase constituents in both B-doped HEA and base alloy has revealed the presence of a phases mixture comprising FCC (Cu-rich F1), ordered FCC (Ni<sub>3</sub>Al-type F2), BCC (Cr-rich) and ordered BCC (NiAl-type B2), with a mean grain size of approximately ∼ 63 nm, along with the dispersion of WC. Furthermore, the B-doped HEA has exhibited superior hardness (∼6.98 ± 0.08 GPa) and compressive strength (>2 GPa) indicating enhancements of ∼5.9 % and ∼21.1 %, respectively compared to the base alloy. The effect of B-addition on thermal stability has been evaluated by annealing both the alloys at 1173 K for 1–10 h, and comparing their post-anneal microstructures and hardness. A quantitative analysis of the post-anneal microstructures has shown a negligible variation in the relative phase fractions of the B-doped HEA, contrary to the monotonic increase in the FCC phase fraction of the base alloy with increasing duration of annealing. The segregation of B at the phase boundaries appears to have inhibited both phase decomposition and grain growth, leading to superior thermal stability with retention of the nanocrystalline microstructure throughout the holding period (with a mean grain size of ∼76 nm after 10 h). Owing to higher thermal stability, 10 h annealing has led to a lower (∼3 %) drop in hardness in the B-doped HEA compared to the base alloy, causing the hardness difference between these alloys to increase to ∼8 %. Analysis of the strengthening mechanisms suggests that the Hall-Petch mechanism is the key contributor to strength, which is further augmented by the Orowan strengthening contributed by the dispersed Cr<sub>7</sub>C<sub>3</sub> particles.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":385,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science and Engineering: A","volume":"936 ","pages":"Article 148408"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143886425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim is to achieve restoration of base material properties without post-heat treatment. The results indicate that the microstructure of the repair zone is predominantly composed of fully martensitic, devoid of carbides. Owing to grain refinement and increased carbide precipitation, the heat affected zone of the 30CrMnSi substrate showed no signs of weakening or degradation in mechanical properties in various mechanical tests. The ultimate tensile strength of the repaired sample is 965 MPa, which corresponds to 99 % of the substrate strength (970 MPa). Additionally, the lath martensite in the repair zone exhibited a strong variant preference for V7 to V12, while the six variants within the same habit plane were nearly evenly distributed, indicating that martensite variant preferential transformation is primarily governed by the specific habit plane of the parent austenite, rather than the habit direction. Moreover, the tendency of dislocation slip to follow longer paths to avoid premature obstruction at lath boundaries, combined with the greater number of available slip systems in the body-centered cubic structure, makes the shape factor of martensite the key determinant in slip system activation under high strain rate deformation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":385,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science and Engineering: A","volume":"935 ","pages":"Article 148336"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143876983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three model systems were examined: CrN, AlN and their multilayered structure coatings, all characterized by columnar GB structures. Fracture toughness was quantitatively assessed using an <em>in situ</em> SEM micro-cantilever fracture testing. The key approach of this study is the use of two different loading geometries, with notches aligned either parallel or perpendicular to the coating's growth direction, allowing us to compare the influence of the crack propagation direction and deflection. Across all three systems, the perpendicular notch configuration—aligned across the columnar microstructure—resulted in approximately 8 % higher fracture toughness. This enhancement is attributed to continuous crack deflection along GBs during deformation. Additionally, the extent of crack deflection was found to depend on the local GB arrangement, with transgranular fracture observed when no well-aligned GBs were present along the crack path.
