Achieving improved wear resistance and balanced strength-ductility in laser powder bed fused Al0.3CoCrFeNi alloy via L12 precipitation

Key Points

• Improved wear resistance and balanced strength-ductility are demonstrated, enhancing the material's properties significantly.
• The maximum wear resistance is reported to be 1.87 times greater than in previous studies, indicating substantial improvement.
• Laser powder bed fusion techniques were applied, focusing on L12 precipitation to achieve optimal material characteristics.
• Further development may be needed for practical applications and the alloy's performance in real-world conditions.
