| Resum: | High-entropy alloy (HEA) particle-reinforced metal matrix composites (MMCs) are a new generation of MMCs with potential applications as orthopedic material in automotive, aerospace, and biomedical fields. In this study, AlCoCrFeNi HEA-reinforced Ti-6Al-4V metal matrix composites (MMCs) were prepared by microwave sintering. The microstructural aspects of the MMC were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), with an emphasis on the interdiffusion (ID) layer. The mechanical properties of the composites were studied by micro-pillar compression at the micro-length scale. The results show that the ID layer exists between the HEA particles and the matrix, is equiaxed in nature, and leads towards metallurgical bonding within the composite. The strength of this ID layer (1573 MPa of yield strength and 1867 MPa of compressive strength) and its Young’s modulus (570 MPa) were about 1.5 times lower than that of the matrix. The HEA particles exhibit the highest strength (2157 MPa of yield strength and 3356 MPa of compressive strength) and Young’s modulus (643 MPa), whereas the matrix falls in between 2372 MPa of yield strength and 2661 MPa of compressive strength, and a Young’s modulus of 721 MPa. |
