The phase transformation kinetics of a face-centered-cubic (FCC) Al0.25CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy during isochronal heating is investigated by thermal dilation experiment. The phase transformed volume fraction is determined from the thermal expansion curve, and results show that the phase transition is controlled by diffusion controlled nucleation-growth mechanism. The kinetic parameters, activation energy and kinetic exponent are determined based on Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS) and Johnson–Mehl–Avrami (JMA) method, respectively. The activation energy and kinetic exponent determined are almost constant, indicating a stable and slow speed of phase transition in the FCC Al0.25CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy. During the main transformation process, the kinetic exponent shows that the phase transition is diffusion controlled process without nucleation during the transformation.

The Cantor high-entropy alloy (HEA) of CrMnFeCoNi is a solid solution with a face-centered cubic structure. While plastic deformation in this alloy is usually dominated by dislocation slip and deformation twinning, our in situ straining transmission electron microscopy (TEM) experiments reveal a crystalline-to-amorphous phase transformation in an ultrafine-grained Cantor alloy. We find that the crack-tip structural evolution involves a sequence of formation of the crystalline, lamellar, spotted, and amorphous patterns, which represent different proportions and organizations of the crystalline and amorphous phases. Such solid-state amorphization stems from both the high lattice friction and high grain boundary resistance to dislocation glide in ultrafine-grained microstructures. The resulting increase of crack-tip dislocation densities promotes the buildup of high stresses for triggering the crystalline-to-amorphous transformation. We also observe the formation of amorphous nanobridges in the crack wake. These amorphization processes dissipate strain energies, thereby providing effective toughening mechanisms for HEAs.
