Abstract
high strength for optimal performance. This work aims to investigate the microstructural evolution, phase formation and microhardness properties of novel equiatomic TiAlMoSiW high entropy alloy synthesized via spark plasma sintering. The effect of Spark plasma sintering temperature of the fabricated equi atomic TiAlMoSiW HEAs was also investigated. The microstructure and the phases formed for the developed HEAs were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD) respectively. The microhardness properties were studied using a diamond base microhardness tester. The synthesized alloys at high sintering temperature showed enhanced microhardness and densification.
