The corrosion behavior of an Al_0.1CoCrFeNi HEA in high temperature CO₂ at 850 °C for different exposure periods was investigated using different characterization methods. Further, weight gain increased with extended exposure periods, yet it remained lower than most conventional alloys. A double-layer oxide film consisting of Cr₂O₃ and Al₂O₃ formed after 100 and 500 h of exposure, while a single layer of Cr₂O₃ developed after 1000 h of exposure. CoCrFeNi particles with an FCC structure were embedded in the oxide films irrespective of the exposure periods. Moreover, a transition zone containing numerous striped-like Al₂O₃ oxides along the grain boundaries was developed underneath the oxide films.
