Abstract:
Metallic coatings of Al2CoCrFeNi high entropy alloy (HEA) were deposited using the suspension high velocity air fuel spray (SHVAF) process, towards exploring its viability as a bond coat in thermal barrier coatings. The relatively high Al content promoted a BCC + B2 phase-dominated coating structure, leading to enhanced mechanical properties. The oxidized microstructure exhibited a protective Al2O3 layer with characteristics comparable to conventional bond coat alloys.
