The fcc structural CoCr2FeNiTi0.5 high-entropy alloy (HEA) composite coating with TiN particles reinforced was acquired by laser cladding on the commercial 904L stainless steels. The results show that phase structure is mainly composed of fcc solid solution and TiN phases. The coating exhibits excellent structural stability below 850 °C. The microstructure consists of irregular dendrite and TiN particles. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results reveal that the close-packed plane of fcc phase is (111) with interplanar spacing of ~ 0.208 nm. The interface between TiN and fcc matrix is semi-coherent. And the angle of boundary between dendrite and matrix is ~ 65°. The hardness and corrosion resistance of coating have much improvement compared with those of substrate.
