Abstract
In this paper, the microstructure and mechanical properties of CoCrFeNiMox (x = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, and 1.0) high-entropy alloys (HEAs) prepared with high-vacuum arc melting method were studied in detail. After Mo-doping, the strengthening mechanism of HEAs mainly included the component segregation strengthening and the second phase strengthening. Cr and Mo elements were enriched at the grain boundary of HEAs, which leaded to the formation of σ phase and strengthens the alloys. The microhardness and strength increased with Mo contents, while the elongation decreased gradually. Among which, the higher microhardness, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength of CoCrFeNiMo0.3 alloy reach 205.96 HV, 292.22 MPa, and 593.25 MPa, respectively, in compared with other alloys. More importantly, the percentage elongation of which remains 37.36%, and the microhardness distribution was uniform with an average value of 7.4 GPa and an elastic modulus of 263.6 GPa. The research findings presented in this paper could serve as a valuable theoretical basis and practical foundations for the strengthening efforts of face centered cubic (FCC) HEAs.
