Popis: The paper presents the microstructure and corrosion behavior of an AlTiNiCuAgSn new equiatomic multicomponent alloy. The alloy was obtained using the vacuum arc remelting (VAR) technique in MRF-ABJ900 equipment. The microstructural analysis was performed by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM microscope, SEM-EDS) and the phase transformations were highlighted by dilatometric analysis and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The results show that the as-cast alloy microstructure is three-phase, with an average microhardness of 487 HV0.1/15. The obtained alloy could be included in the group of compositionally complex alloys (CCA). The corrosion resistance was studied using the potentiodynamic method in saline solution with 3.5% NaCl. Considering the high corrosion resistance, the obtained alloy can be used for surface coating applications.
