Abstract

This article summarizes the important preparation methods of high-entropy alloy coating in recent years, focusing on the influence of magnetron sputtering and laser cladding preparation parameters on the structure and performance of coatings. The alloying process and the role of special elements are discussed in detail, especially in terms of the corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance of the acquired high-entropy coatings. The relevant mechanisms of coating failures were interpreted from physical and chemical aspects, and the reasons why high-entropy coating has excellent oxidation resistance were also summarized briefly, furthermore, the key problems that may be faced and still to be solved for the application of this kind of coatings in special working conditions such as marine engineering and aerospace etc. are discussed in detail. On this basis, the future research trend of high entropy alloy coatings is prospected.

Key words: high entropy coating magnetron sputtering laser cladding corrosion resistance high temperature oxidation
