Title: Enhanced void swelling in NiCoFeCrPd high-entropy alloy by indentation-induced dislocations

Abstract

The role of dislocations on ion irradiation-induced void formation is studied in a high-entropy alloy (HEA) NiCoFeCrPd. Despite previous observations that show high-entropy alloys are swelling resistant due to a high defect recombination rate, the swelling is enhanced with increasing density of pre-existing dislocations at low strain levels that shortened transient duration before the onset of void swelling. Under certain irradiation conditions, a high density of dislocations may carry the material closer to the sink-dominated regime. Finally, compared to another HEA NiCoFeCrMn, NiCoFeCrPd has a smaller loop size and higher loop density due to the stronger lattice distortion.

Influence of irradiation temperature on void swelling in NiCoFeCrMn and NiCoFeCrPd

Journal Article Yang, Tai-ni ; Lu, Chenyang ; Velisa, Gihan ; ... - Scripta Materialia

Here, using ion irradiation and transmission electron microscopy, temperature dependent void swelling and dislocation loop evolution in equiatomic NiCoFeCrMn and NiCoFeCrPd high entropy alloys were investigated. Voids were observed in all tested conditions. An order higher of swelling was observed in both HEAs as temperature increased from 420 to 580 °C. Alloying with Pd was found to have a stronger suppression effect on void and dislocation loop growth than alloying with Mn. Possible contributions to the swelling resistance were explored, including localized lattice distortion and higher defect migration barrier in NiCoFeCrPd. Additionally, no phase decomposition was observed in either alloy.

Irradiation effects of medium-entropy alloy NiCoCr with and without pre-indentation

Journal Article Lu, Chenyang ; Yang, Tai-Ni ; Jin, Ke ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

Medium entropy alloy NiCoCr draws great attention due to its excellent strength-ductility trade-off mechanical behavior. Its irradiation behavior at elevated temperatures has been investigated using ion beam irradiation in a temperature range of 420–580°C and transmission electron microscopy. Irradiation induced stacking fault tetrahedra were only observed at 420°C. With increasing irradiation temperature, all stacking fault tetrahedra vanished, while the size of voids and dislocation loops increased significantly. Nanoindentation-induced structural complexities, including dislocations, stacking faults and twins helped to reduce void swelling. However, at the elevated temperatures, NiCoCr is still much more susceptible to void swelling compared to high entropy alloysmore » such as NiCoFeCrMn and NiCoFeCrPd.« less

From suppressed void growth to significant void swelling in NiCoFeCr complex concentrated solid-solution alloy

Journal Article Fan, Zhe ; Yang, Tai-ni ; Kombaiah, Boopathy ; ... - Materialia

Void swelling can result in dimensional instability and undermine the safe operation of nuclear reactors. Current strategies to inhibit void swelling mainly focus on enhancing defect absorption and recombination by introducing high-density defect sinks. Complex concentrated solid-solution alloys (CSAs), including high-entropy alloys, can withstand severe radiation damage due to their inherent chemical complexity without interfaces. However, the underlying mechanisms for void suppression in CSAs are far from clear. In this research, we studied the void evolution with respect to irradiation depths, doses, and temperatures in equiatomic NiCoFeCr under 3 MeV Ni ion irradiations. At relatively low doses (16 and 54more »« less

Nanoprecipitates to Enhance Radiation Tolerance in High-Entropy Alloys

The growth of advanced energy technologies for power generation is enabled by the design, development, and integration of structural materials that can withstand extreme environments, such as high temperatures, radiation damage, and corrosion. High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are a class of structural materials in which suitable chemical elements in four or more numbers are mixed to typically produce single-phase concentrated solid solution alloys (CSAs). Many of these alloys exhibit good radiation tolerance like limited void swelling and hardening up to relatively medium radiation doses (tens of displacements per atom (dpa)); however, at higher radiation damage levels (>50 dpa), some HEAs suffermore »« less

Radiation Effects in Innovative Structural Materials

The extreme radiation environments and demanding structural conditions of next-generation fission and proposed fusion reactors will require high performance materials with very high radiation resistance. Although conventional structural materials such as ferritic/ martensitic steels offer several attractive features, there is value in exploring alternative materials systems that may offer unprecedented radiation stability while also offering good thermomechanical properties. As noted elsewhere, options for designing radiation resistance include (a) the traditional approach of introducing a very high sink strength for recombination of radiation-induced vacancies and interstitials (e.g., Ti-modified stainless steels or 'nano-cluster-strengthened ferritic alloys', (b) utilizing materials with immobile vacancies atmore »« less
