Summary

This study characterized the mechanical properties of a high-entropy alloy manufactured by both conventional induction melting and selective laser melting (3D printing). The research is focused on advanced materials engineering with limited direct relevance to microplastic pollution.

The equiatomic high-entropy alloy of composition of CrNiCoFeMn with an FCC crystal structure was prepared by either induction melting or additive manufacturing with a selective laser melting (SLM) process, starting from mechanically alloyed powders. The as-produced samples of both kinds were cold worked, and in some cases re-crystallized. Unlike induction melting, there is a second phase, which is made of fine nitride and Cr-rich σ phase precipitates, in the as-produced SLM alloy. Young's modulus and damping measurements, as a function of temperature in the 300-800 K range, were performed on the specimens that were cold-worked and/or re-crystallized. Young's modulus values of (140 ± 10) GPa and (90 ± 10) GPa were measured from the resonance frequency of free-clamped bar-shaped samples at 300 K for the induction-melted and SLM samples, respectively. The room temperature values increased to (160 ± 10) GPa and (170 ± 10) GPa for the re-crystallized samples. The damping measurements showed two peaks, which were attributed to dislocation bending and grain-boundary sliding. The peaks were superposed on an increasing temperature background.
