 Abstract:
Recently, high-entropy alloys have gained a lot of attention as a potential construction material. Due to their excellent mechanical properties at elevated temperatures, as well as their distinct chemical resistance against oxidation and corrosion, high-entropy alloys are especially suitable for high-temperature material brazing applications. In order to pursue this concept, the high-temperature material molybdenum (99,99 %) and the nickel-base super-alloy 247 were brazed in a vacuum furnace process, using the two-phase, fcc random solid solution high-entropy alloy CoCrCuFeNi as a filler metal. For this paper, shear tests and microstructure analyses of the brazed joints were conducted. Taking the high entropy effect into consideration, high entropy alloys tend to promote a random solid solution with a higher probability than phases with a higher degree of order. Within this context, a special focus was laid on the microstructure and phase development of the high-entropy filler metal, especially due to thermally activated diffusion processes within the joining partners.
