    Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) have gained attention in the last decades with their high mechanical strength, self-healing mechanism, and high irradiation resistance. These materials are evaluated to have a high potential as plasma-facing materials for fusion reactors. In this study, helium ion irradiation and mechanical behaviors of the RHEA-reinforced WNi matrix composites were investigated based on this perspective. Equimolar molybdenum, niobium, tantalum and vanadium powders were mechanically alloyed for 6 h to produce NbMoVTa RHEA with a single BCC phase. Then, different amounts (10, 20, 30, and 40 wt%) of RHEA were added into the W1Ni (containing 99 wt% W and 1 wt% Ni) matrix by planetary ball milling for 72 h. Consolidation was conducted by spark plasma sintering technique (1410 degrees C, 1 min). X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersion spectroscopy, and Archimedes' density analyses were performed on the composites. Moreover, wear and hardness properties of the composites were examined, and the lowest specific wear rate (0.59 mm3/N.m x 10- 5) and the highest hardness value (10.10 GPa) were found for the W1Ni-40RHEA composite. Helium irradiation was exposed to the composites to observe their irradiation resistance. It was observed that the lowest increment and the least deformation were obtained with the SPS'ed W1Ni-40RHEA composite. With the analysis of He+ irradiation, it was determined that the effect of radiation on mechanical properties is irrelevant. Also, it was observed that the addition of RHEA into the W matrix can create a high potential for using plasma-facing material. Moreover, it decreased the problems of tungsten against He+ irradiation.

    Powder metallurgy processing of seven/eight component multi-phase (HfTiZr-Mn/Mo/W/Cr/Ta)B<sub>2</sub> high entropy diboride ceramics
    (Elsevier, 2024-12-01) Suzer, Ilayda; Akbari, Amir; Ates, Semih; Bayrak, Kuebra Gurcan; Mertdinc-Ulkuseven, Siddika; Arisoy, C. Fahir; Agaogullari, Duygu; Öveçoğlu, M. Lutfi
    This study aims to show the possibility of synthesizing seven- and eight-component high entropy diboride (HEB) ceramics using high energy ball milling-assisted spark plasma sintering (SPS). Metal boride powders, synthesized in laboratory conditions from metal oxide-boron oxide-magnesium powder blends, were combined equimolarly as seven and eight components containing systems. Afterwards, hybridized powders were mechanically alloyed (MA) for 6 h and subjected to spark plasma sintering (SPS) at 2000 degrees C and under 30 MPa. Detailed phase analysis and physical, microstructural, and mechanical characterization of the samples were performed. in the sintered products, the main phase belongs to the HEB, and also low amounts of Hf/Zr oxides and secondary phases (W or Ti-rich) occurred. The highest hardness was observed at the (HfTiZrMoWCrTa)B-2 with 25 GPa, and the lowest hardness was seen at the (HfTiZrMnCrMoWTa)B2 with 17 GPa. Also, the highest wear resistance was calculated for the (HfTiZrMnCrMoTa)B-2 as 6.05 x 10(-7) mm(3)/Nm. Additionally, (HfTiZrMnMoWTa)B-2 and (HfTiZrMnMoCrTa)B-2 have the highest and lowest Archimedes' densities, with 7.94 g/cm(3) and 6.91 g/cm(3), respectively.
