In situ synchrotron X-ray imaging and mechanical properties characterization of additively manufactured high-entropy alloy composites
Abstract
Laser beam directed energy deposition has become an increasingly popular advanced manufacturing technique for materials discovery as a result of the in situ alloying capability. In this study, we leverage an additive manufacturing enabled high throughput materials discovery approach to explore the composition space of a graded Wx(CoCrFeMnNi)100–x sample spanning 0 ≤ x ≤ 21 at%. In addition to microstructural and mechanical characterization, synchrotron high speed x-ray computer aided tomography was conducted on a W20(CoCrFeMnNi)80 composition to visualize melting dynamics, powder-laser interactions, and remelting effects of previously consolidated material. Results reveal the formation of the Fe7W6 intermetallic phase at W concentrations> 6 at%, despite the high configurational entropy. Unincorporated W particles also occurred at W concentrations> 10 at% accompanied by a dissolution band of Fe7W6 at the W/matrix interface and hardness values greater than 400 HV. In this work, the primary strengthening mechanism is attributed to the reinforcement of the Fe7W6 and W phases as a metal matrix composite. The in situ high speed x-ray imaging during remelting showed that an additional laser pass did not promote further mixing of the Fe7W6 or W phases suggesting that, despite the dissolution of the W into the Fe7W6 phase being thermodynamically favored,more »
