Abstract

As any largescale cast material, specific Compositionally Complex Alloys or High Entropy Superalloys contain segregations, leading to unideal, inhomogeneous properties. This work presents the effects of a homogenization heat treatment at 1 150°C for 6 h of a large-scale cast Al_4.4Co₂₆Cr₁₈Fe₁₈Ni₂₆Ti_5.5 alloy. In order to reveal these effects, homogenized specimens were analyzed and compared to the as-cast state with regard to chemical homogeneity as well as the homogeneity of elemental solution by means of scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy as well as X-ray diffraction and hardness measurements. Despite the increased Al content, intermetallic phases and segregations, observable in the as-cast state, dissolve during homogenization. Improved, but not full homogeneity of elemental distribution after annealing can be determined. The improved state of solution and homogeneity agrees with the increasing lattice parameter from 3.572 Å to 3.594 Å and the decreasing hardness from 320.3 HV10 to 245.2 HV10 during homogenization.
