This paper reports a new liquid metal embrittlement (LME) system in which a dual-phase Al0.7CoCrFeNi (equimolar fraction) high-entropy alloy (HEA) is embrittled by lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) at 350 and 500°C. At 350°C, (Ni, Al)-rich BCC phase is embrittled, leading to intragrain cracking within this phase, while the predominant cracking mode changes to BCC/FCC phase boundary decohesion at 500°C. At both temperatures, cracks are rarely seen in the (Co, Cr, Fe)-rich FCC phase, indicating that this phase is immune to LME. Furthermore, the results suggest a transition from an adsorption-dominated LME mechanism at 350°C to a phase boundary wetting-dominated LME mechanism at 500°C.
