The effects of mechanical alloying on the physical and thermal properties of CuCrFeTiV alloy

The present work reports the production and key properties of CuCrFeTiV high entropy alloy synthetized by mechanical alloying spark plasma sintering. milled powders as-sintered samples were analysed through scanning electron microscopy, coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy particle induced emission. Magnetic together electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity, specific heat differential analysis also evaluated on consolidated samples. reveal an increasing content in iron as millings are prolonged up to 20 h. elemental composition sintered alloy, determined emission, confirms final after increase a decrease remaining elements. Furthermore, although presents resistivity typical ferromagnetic behaviour was found, consistently major Fe detected prior observations. Finally, measurements show that this possesses suitable for its potential use barriers.
