One reason for the good mechanical compressive properties could be small clusters in the
two main phases as seen in SEM pictures (Fig. 2d). N
3. SUMMARY WU
In this work the microstructure as well as the precipitation structure of a high entropy alloy ke
Al-Cu-Ni-Ti-V with an equiatomic composition (AI20Fe20Ni20Ti20V20 in at.%) was we
characterised. The microstructure of the materials consists of fcc (solid solution) and bec HM
phases (Cu rich precipitates) and many different other phases. The ATP investigations >
show homogeneously distributed clusters of vanadium (ca. 2 — 3 nm in diameter) in the
solid solution of the alloy. The results of compression tests in air and in hydrogen
atmosphere show a great potential concerning resistance of the investigated material to {EN
the hydrogen embrittlement. The hardness as well as the compression strength are very
high and the ductility on the acceptable level. Further optimization of the material is lez
planned in the near future. ra
