The scratch behaviour of AlXCoCrFeNi (x=0.3 and 1.0) high entropy alloys

The wear behaviour of as-cast Al1.0CoCrFeNi with a body-centred cubic (BCC) structure and Al0.3CoCrFeNi with a face-centred cubic (FCC) structure in the as-cast, homogenized and recrystallized conditions was studied by determining the intrinsic response to abrasive scratch testing. For the FCC material, the wear mechanism was qualitatively the same for the as-cast, homogenized and recrystallized conditions. The wear rate increased with...
