Abstract
High entropy oxides (HEOs) are considered as an advanced materials having excellent properties like corrosion resistance, high hardness and wear resistance for a wide range of applications. In this study, coatings with two different types of high entropy oxides as epoxy fillers: (CrMnFeCoNi)3O4/EP and (CrMnFeCoZr)3O4/EP coatings were prepared and electrochemically tested for their corrosion resistance. Tests conducted in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution showed that the (CrMnFeCoNi)3O4/EP coatings exhibited better corrosion stability compared to the (CrMnFeCoNi)3O4/EP coatings. This is due to the fact that the introduction of Zr can significantly refine the grain and change the grain structure to a reticulated type, enhancing the corrosion resistance of the coating.
