High entropy alloys (HEAs) have recently attracted much attention due to their unique properties such as high ambient and elevated temperature strengths, hardness, and good structural stability. FeCoCrNi is one of the well-known alloy system with its excellent HEA forming ability. This alloy was previously produced by various methods using high grade pure raw materials. However, there is no scale-up production from industrial raw materials which contain various impurity elements such as Al, Si, and C. In this study, FeCoCrNi, FeCoCrNiCux, and FeCoCrNiAlx (x: 0.3, 0.6, 1) HEAs were produced from industrial grade raw materials with impurities using induction casting method. These alloys were produced by using of high purity raw materials to compare microstructural features and mechanical properties, as well. These alloys were modelled through Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package (VASP). Structural characterization were performed with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The thermodynamic properties of these alloys were investigated by HEA Calculator and Thermo-Calc software. Hardness, tensile and compression tests were performed to reveal basic mechanical behavior. Cr7C3 phases were present in impure FeCoCrNi alloy besides FCC main phase, on the other hand the pure specimen had only FCC phase. 515 MPa tensile strength with 57 % ductility and 650 MPa tensile strength with no ductility were obtained for pure and impure FeCoCrNi alloys, respectively. The addition of Cu does not cause a significant structural and mechanical difference in HEAs. However, the addition of Al caused the crystal structure to transform from FCC to BCC. Impure FeCoCrNiAl0.6 alloy which has 2770 MPa maximum compressive strength with 14% compressive strain at fracture is the strongest one among produced alloys. It also shows better mechanical properties compared to Mg, Al, Ti and most of the Fe, Ni containing alloys.

Structural and optical properties of thermally annealed thallium indium disulfide thin films
Guler, I; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Elsevier BV, 2020-06-30)
Structural and optical properties of thallium indium disulfide (TlInS2) thin films, deposited by thermal evaporation technique and thermally annealed at different temperatures, were analyzed. Crystallite size, dislocation density and lattice strain of the thin films were found from X-ray diffraction experiments. The atomic compositions of the films were determined from energy dispersive spectroscopy analysis. Surface morphology of the films was analyzed using atomic force microscopy. From room temperature t...
Synthesis and characterization of Ti-based bulk amorphous/naocrystalline alloys for engineering applications
Abdelal, Ali; Akdeniz, Mahmut Vedat; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2004)
Amorphous and bulk amorphous metallic alloys are an intriguing class of structural materials and possess a range of interesting properties, including near theoretical strength, high hardness, extremely low damping characteristics, excellent wear properties, high corrosion resistance, low shrinkage during cooling and almost perfect as-cast surfaces with good potential for forming and shaping. In this study, new Ti-based bulk amorphous alloys are tried to be modeled and synthesized. For that purpose, electron...
Development and thermal stability of Cr10Mo25Ta25Ti15V25 refractory high entropy alloys
Tukac, O. Umut; Özalp, Ali; Aydoğan Güngör, Eda (2023-01-01)
Refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) are promising materials for extreme environment applications, such as high-temperatures (> 1000 degrees C), corrosion and irradiation. In this study, a new CrMoTaTiV RHEA system has been designed using CALPHAD modeling and thermophysical parameter optimization, and produced by vacuum arc melting. Microstructure at room temperature as well as microstructural stability and me-chanical properties at high temperature have been investigated. It has been found that BCC alloy...
Structural and electronic properties of defected carbon nanocapsules
Pekoez, Rengin; Erkoç, Şakir (2007-06-01)
Structural and electronic properties of defected carbon nanocapsule systems have been investigated theoretically by performing semi-empirical molecular orbital and density functional theory methods. Geometries of the structures have been optimized by applying PM3 level of calculations within restricted Hartree Fock formalism and electronic information have been obtained by applying B3LYP level of density functional theory calculation using 3-21G basis set. The studied systems include (5,5) and (9,0) single-...
Structural and electronic properties of GaP nanowires
Mohammad, Rezek; Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (2015-09-01)
Structural stability and electronic properties of bare and hydrogenated GaP nanowires in zinc-blende and wurtzite phases have been investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. It is determined that relaxation of the hydrogenated GaP nanowires is very small compared to that of their bare ones. The wurtzite structural hydrogenated GaP nanowires are found more stable than the zinc-blende structural ones by cohesive energy calculations. It is obtained that all the bare an...
