The paper presents the results of studying some properties and structure of a quasi high-entropy alloy (QHEA) of the CoCrFeMnNi system melted with the use of ferroalloys. The paper presents the results of a study of some properties and structure of a quasi-high-entropy alloy of the CoCrFeMnNi system, smelted using low-carbon ferromanganese and ferrochrome. Chemical composition, strength and microhardness have been studied. The structure contains a small number of inclusions of silicate nature. The experimental alloy demonstrated properties close to the level of properties of a similar alloy melted with the use of pure metals by 5-fold remelting. The results obtained showed the possibility of partial replacement of pure metals with ferroalloys when smelting of QHEAs, which will positively affect their cost.
Keywords: ferroalloy system, smelting, quasi high-entropy alloy, mechanical properties, structure.
