The invention discloses a medium entropy
alloy material for additive manufacturing and an application method of the medium entropy
alloy material, and relates to the field of additive manufacturing. The medium entropy
alloy material for additive manufacturing is characterized in that the material components comprise Cr, Co and Ni, and the atomic percentages are separately 20%-50%. The applicationmethod comprises the following steps that a
metal substrate with appropriate size is selected, each component is melted by using a heat source, a scanning path file of a 3D model of a workpiece is input into a
robot control computer to scan in a given path, the workpiece is separately from the substrate by using
wire cutting after all scanning and cooling, and the workpiece is cleaned, shined andpolished. According to the medium entropy alloy material for additive manufacturing and the application method of the medium entropy alloy material, the strong
solid solution strengthening effect in amedium entropy alloy is utilized to obtain a printed workpiece with high strength and good
toughness matching, and meanwhile, the
diffusion retardation effect is utilized to
delay or even prevent thediffusion of substrate materials and prevent the formation of various brittle
mesophase; and meanwhile, less elements are involved, simple preparation and easy realization of industrial production are achieved, and the medium entropy alloy material for additive manufacturing and the application method of the medium entropy alloy material have the advantages of low cost, environmental friendlinessand the like.
