Molten NaCl–KCl–MgCl2 is becoming a potential heat transfer fluid (HTF) and thermal energy storage (TES) material in the third generation of concentrated solar energy power (CSP) stations due to its excellent heat storage-capacity and thermal stability. However, the strong corrosion of the molten chloride salt at high temperature limits its industrial application. In this study, the corrosion behaviour of FeCoNiCrAl HEA with BCC + FCC phase structure in molten NaCl–KCl–MgCl2 (24.5–20.55–54.95 wt-%) at 650 °C under argon was investigated by a combination of weight loss and electrochemical methods. The results show that, the corrosion of FeCoNiCrAl HEA in molten chloride salt mainly manifests as the selective dissolution of Fe and Cr. With the further increase of immersion time, oxides gradually crack and slightly flake, resulting in large weight loss of FeCoNiCrAl HEA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
