Enhanced Corrosion−Resistance of AlTiCrFeMoSi High−Entropy Alloy Coating by Magnetron Sputtering
Source abstract
Abstract
The amorphous AlTiCrFeMoSi high entropy alloy (HEA) coating with high hardness (11.88 GPa) is successfully deposited on T91 substrate by the magnetron sputtering method. Both T91 steel and as−deposited AlTiCrFeMoSi coating samples are exposed to a static liquid lead−bismuth eutectic (LBE) at 550 °C for up to 2000 h. The coating exhibits excellent corrosion resistance against lead−bismuth eutectic (LBE) compared with the uncoated T91 steel. The results show that the AlTiCrFeMoSi HEA coating has great potential in LBE−cooled fast reactor application.
