Description
Summary:Preparation and properties of La(Cr<sub>0.2</sub>Mn<sub>0.2</sub>Fe<sub>0.2</sub>Co<sub>0.2</sub>Ni<sub>0.2</sub>)O<sub>3</sub> high-entropy ceramics are investigated. La(Cr<sub>0.2</sub>Mn<sub>0.2</sub>Fe<sub>0.2</sub>Co<sub>0.2</sub>Ni<sub>0.2</sub>)O<sub>3</sub> high-entropy ceramics are prepared by a traditional two-step solid-state reaction method in air. La(Cr<sub>0.2</sub>Mn<sub>0.2</sub>Fe<sub>0.2</sub>Co<sub>0.2</sub>Ni<sub>0.2</sub>)O<sub>3</sub> single-phase powders are synthesized by calcining the mixed oxides at 1000 °C for 20 h. The high-entropy ceramics are sintered at 1350–1650 °C in a muffle furnace for 4 h by using the above powders. The phase compositions of the high-entropy ceramics at different temperatures are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) with Cu Kα radiation. A field-emission scanning electron microscope with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) is used to observe the microstructures and analyze the elemental distributions. The hardness and dielectric properties are measured and discussed.
