Problems solved by technology

At present, high-entropy alloy powders for additive manufacturing are mainly prepared by gas atomization (including vacuum atomization VIGA and induction melting atomization EIGA) and rotating electrode atomization (PREP), but the powder sphericity prepared by gas atomization Poor, accompanied by a large number of satellite balls and hollow powder, will cause poor powder fluidity, printing defects and reduce the mechanical properties of the product; while the particle size of the powder prepared by the rotating electrode atomization method is generally concentrated in 106-248 μm, which cannot meet the requirements of selective laser melting and Fine particle size requirements of metal powders for powder bed fusion additive manufacturing processes such as electron beam selective melting (<53 μm)
