Abstract
In this work, compaction behavior of CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy powders with various particle sizes and size distributions, produced by water atomization, was investigated experimentally and theoretically. Theoretical modeling was employed using a pressure-dependent yield function in associated with a phenomenological constitutive model. Results for the quantitative densification behaviors from the experimental and theoretical analyses are in good agreement. We found that the size and size-distribution of the powder particles are important factors in the tap density as with conventional powder compaction. The compact density of large powder particles with coarse dendrite arm spacing is high due to low deformation resistance and low strain hardening (i.e., low evolution of dislocation density).
