Effects of Process Control Agent Amount, Milling Time, and Annealing Heat Treatment on the Microstructure of AlCrCuFeNi High-Entropy Alloy Synthesized through Mechanical Alloying

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of the AlCrCuFeNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) synthesized through mechanical alloying (MA). In addition, effects of Process Control Agent (PCA) amount and milling time were investigated using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The results indicated that the synthesized AlCrCuFeNi alloy is a dual phase (FCC +...
