Novel Ti/Al laminated composite embedded with particles of the high entropy alloy Al0.5CoCrFeNi were produced by vacuum hot press sintering at 650°C. The microstructure of the laminated composite was investigated using XRD, SEM, EDS, TEM and EBSD techniques. It was found that a thin layer of Al3Ti was formed at the Ti/Al interface. There were no obvious defects between the Al0.5CoCrFeNi particles and Al matrix, achieving a good interfacial bond. The tensile properties of the material were tested at room temperature. The results of the tensile test indicated that the material exhibited an elongation to failure of 59% and an average tensile strength of 240 MPa, demonstrating excellent plastic deformation capability. During the tensile process, the expansion of fractures and cracks in Al0.5CoCrFeNi particles can consume energy, which helps to improve the material's ability to undergo plastic deformation. Based on the morphologies of tensile fracture, it has been observed that the fracture surface of high entropy alloys exhibits a mixed fracture mode consisting of both brittle and plastic fracture. The brittle BCC phase has been identified as the main cause of cracking in HEA. Ultimately, the material fractures due to necking. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
