Abstract

(Co25Cr15Fe20Ni40)83Al17 yüzey merkezli kübik (FCC) ve hacim merkezli kübik (BCC) fazlardan oluşan bir ötektik yüksek entropili alaşımdır (EYEA). Bu ikili faz karışımı (FCC+BCC), iyi süneklik ve mukavemet kombinasyonu sağlar. Bu çalışma kapsamında, vakum ark ergitme ve döküm yöntemi ile üretilen (Co25Cr15Fe20Ni40)83Al17 EYEA'nın mikroyapısı ve sertliği üzerine mekanik, termal ve termomekanik süreçlerin etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, döküm levhalara soğuk ve sıcak haddeleme ile farklı tavlama işlemleri uygulanmıştır. Soğuk haddeleme oda sıcaklığında yapılırken, sıcak haddeleme sıcaklığı 500-1000℃ arasında değiştirilmiştir. Soğuk ve sıcak haddeleme sonrasında uygulanabilen maksimum deformasyon sırasıyla %50 ve %60 olmuştur. Sınırlı deforme edilebilirlik, uygulanan deformasyonla ötektik faz karışımında artan BCC/B2 oranına bağlanmıştır. %50 soğuk haddelemeden sonra sertlik 280 HV'den 412 HV'ye yükselmiştir. Benzer yüksek sertlik değeri (399 HV) 750℃'de ~%50 deformasyondan sonra elde edilmiştir ki bu da dinamik yeniden kristalleşmenin 1000 ℃'ye kadar belirgin bir etkisinin olmadığını göstermektedir.

THE EFFECT OF THE THERMOMECHANICAL PROCESSING ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND HARDNESS OF (Co25Cr15Fe20Ni40)83Al17 HIGH ENTROPY ALLOY

Abstract

(Co25Cr15Fe20Ni40)83Al17 is a eutectic high entropy alloy (EHEA), which is composed of face centered cubic (FCC) and body centered cubic (BCC) phases. This dual (FCC+BCC) phase mixture provides good ductility and strength combination. In the scope of this study, it was aimed to analyze the effect of mechanical, thermal and thermomechanical processes on the microstructure and hardness of (Co25Cr15Fe20Ni40)83Al17 EHEA, which was produced by the vacuum arc melting and casting method. With this aim, cold and hot rolling as well as different annealing treatments were applied to the as-cast plates. The cold-rolling was performed at room temperature while the hot rolling temperature was varied in between 500-1000℃. The maximum deformation that can be applied was 50% and 60 % after cold and hot rolling, respectively. The limited deformability was attributed to the increased BCC/B2 content in the eutectic phase mixture with the applied deformation. The hardness was increased from 280 HV to 412 HV after 50% cold-rolling. A similar high hardness value (399 HV) was obtained after ~50% deformation at 750℃, indicating that the dynamic recrystallization had no significant effect up to 1000℃.
