Abstract

The production of high entropy alloy-based nanocomposites is an exciting yet challenging area in terms of its scalability and industrial applications. Here we developed graphene oxide (GO) reinforced FeCoNiCuZn high entropy alloy (HEA) nanocomposites through an electrochemical approach using aqueous medium in a single step. Transmission electron microscopy observations confirmed uniformly distributed nanocrystalline dual FCC phase quinary alloy nanoparticles throughout the GO layers. On the other hand, the presence of GO affects the electrochemical reduction of multiple elements during alloy formation in the deposition process, which often leads to dual phases with slight deviations in alloy composition, unlike the pure metal-GO composites. Additionally, incorporation of GO has not shown any effect on the ferromagnetic nature of FeCoNiCuZn HEA with saturation magnetization (Ms) ? 43.5 emu g?1. The obtained saturation magnetization is relatively higher compared to the existing reported magnetic nanoparticles with GO. Hence, this technique shows its potential applicability and provides an old technique yet a new approach for synthesizing GO-HEA nanocomposites for various magnetic applications. © 2022 The Electrochemical Society ("ECS").
