Corrosion resistance of weight reduced AlxCrFeMoV high entropy alloys

High entropy alloys with superior hardness and corrosion resistance have proved themselves excellent coating materials. In this study, a pitting corrosion resistance analysis of AlxCrFeMoV alloys (with x = 0, 0.2, 0.6, 1), with outstanding mechanical features, has been conducted. The study was motivated by their exceedingly high pitting resistant equivalent number (PREN) values, in the range of 80–100. Powder metallurgy techniques, including...
