Abstract
With multiple principal components, high entropy alloys (HEAs) have aroused great interest due to their unique microstructures and outstanding properties. Recently, the corrosion behavior of HEAs has become a scientific hotspot in the area of material science and engineering, and HEAs can exhibit good protection against corrosive environments. A comprehensive understanding of the corrosion mechanism of HEAs is important for further design of HEAs with better performance. This paper reviews the corrosion properties and mechanisms of HEAs (mainly Cantor alloy and its variants) in various environments. More crucially, this paper is focused on the influences of composition and microstructure on the evolution of the corrosion process, especially passive film stability and localized corrosion resistance. The corrosion behavior of HEAs as structural materials in nuclear industry applications is emphasized. Finally, based on this review, the possible perspectives for scientific research and engineering applications of HEAs are proposed.
