Research shows high-entropy alloy MnCoNiCuGe5 forms a stable three-phase structure in nickel and IN718 superalloy, indicating its effectiveness as a brazing filler metal.
Key Points
Three-phase joint structure formed when using high-entropy alloy MnCoNiCuGe5, enhancing bonding strength.
Micro X-ray analysis revealed significant phases, with one phase containing up to 21.37% germanium after brazing.
Investigation included nickel and corrosion-resistant steel as base materials, showcasing versatile application of the alloy.
Results suggest high-entropy alloys may redefine standards for brazing materials, but composition effects must be studied.
