Abstract

Multi-principal element alloys have the potential to show excellent passivation behavior. However, the detailed compositional and crystal structure design of these alloys requires a high-throughput strategy. We used combinatorial thin-film libraries of single-phase (FeCoNi)1-x-yCrxAly alloys and compared their passivation behaviors to corresponding bulk alloys. Our results demonstrate that the detailed passivation behaviors of thin-films and bulk alloys are different which is related to both nanoscale porosity within the thin-films and grain boundary dissolution. Nevertheless, we found that comparisons made among suitably designed sets of thin-film alloys can be used to determine the best corrosion performing bulk alloy composition.
