Abstract
(AlFeNiCrCoTi0.5)p/6061Al matrix composites were prepared by cold isostatic pressing combined with equal-diameter angular extrusion. The microstructure and properties of the extruded materials after adding high-entropy alloys were studied. The FCC + BCC dual-phase high-entropy alloy particles mechanically alloyed for 90 h were added to the aluminum matrix, while the composite material formed a diffusion interface after equal-diameter angular extrusion. Compared with the 6061Al matrix, when the content of AlFeNiCrCoTi0.5 was 10%, by two passes, the hardness increased from 52.5 HV to 70.3 HV, the tensile strength increased from 158 MPa to 188 MPa, and the elongation changed from 14.9% to 14.1%. The material had good comprehensive mechanical properties.
