Abstract:

Equilibrium phase diagrams for ten MeXNbTiZr100-X alloy systems, where Me is Al, Cr, Fe, Hf, Mo, Re, Si,Ta, V or W and X ranges from 0 to 25 at were calculated using the PanNb2018a database recently developed by CompuTherm, LLC. By the type of phases and sequence of formation, these alloy systems can be divided into two groups. The first group of quaternary alloys, containing Al, Hf, Mo, Ta, or V has a single-phase BCC region below the solidus line over the entire X range and can be considered as potential candidates for the development of single-phase high entropy alloys. The second group consists of the quaternary alloy systems in which the fourth element Cr, Fe, Re, Si or W has limited solubility in BCC NbTiZr, which leads to the formation of an additional phase below the solidus and above the solubility limit. These quaternary alloy systems can be used for the development of precipitation or dispersoid strengthened complex concentrated alloys.
