Abstract

In this work, a ∼400 µm-thick hardened and corrosion-resistant surface layer was fabricated upon the (CrCoNi) 92Si 4B 4 medium-entropy alloy using laser surface remelting technique. Detailed microstructure observations unveil that dual-phase equiaxed grains with major FCC and minor BCT Cr 2B phases in the recrystallized (CrCoNi) 92Si 4B 4 alloy are reconstructed into laser-remelted hypoeutectic nanostructured surface consisting of primary FCC phase and nanostructured FCC/BCT eutectic network. Such hypoeutectic nanostructured surface shows superior corrosion resistance, as evidenced by higher corrosion potential and lower corrosion current density than the as-cast and fully recrystallized counterparts. Galvanic corrosion prevails in all samples, while the laser-remelted surface exhibits ∼ 5 times higher resistance due to the impedance of the nanoscale eutectic network architected in hypoeutectic nanostructure.
