Abstract

The resistance of the Al<subscript>0.5</subscript>Cr<subscript>0.9</subscript>FeNi<subscript>2.5</subscript>V<subscript>0.2</subscript> high-entropy alloy (HEA) to hydrogen embrittlement (HE) was investigated by a slow strain rate test (SSRT), and the fracture surface was examined through a scanning electron microscope. Compared with other high-strength steels, Al<subscript>0.5</subscript>Cr<subscript>0.9</subscript>FeNi<subscript>2.5</subscript>V<subscript>0.2</subscript> showed insignificant strength loss after hydrogen charging. The fracture surface of the hydrogen-charged specimens mainly consisted of dimples, and no intergranular morphology was observed. The coupling effect of the dispersed nano-structured precipitates and high-density dislocations in Al<subscript>0.5</subscript>Cr<subscript>0.9</subscript>FeNi<subscript>2.5</subscript>V<subscript>0.2</subscript> improves the resistance to hydrogen-induced strength loss.
