Abstract: High-entropy alloys have become a focal point in the field of materials in recent years due to their combination of high strength, toughness, high-temperature mechanical properties, oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance. Eutectic high-entropy alloys combine the advantages of eutectic alloys and high-entropy alloys, making it possible to cast large-scale components. The mechanical properties of the alloy are regulated by cold rolling and annealing, and the changes inmicrostructure organization and mechanical properties of the eutectic high-entropy alloy after annealing at different temperatures are investigated by XRD, SEM, EDS, and tensile testing machine. The results showed that the tensile strength of the alloy is abnormally improved after 30% cold rolling, while the elongation plummeted. After annealing at temperatures of 800 ℃, 900 ℃, and1 000 ℃ after 30% cold rolling, the organization gradually changes from partial recrystallisation to complete recrystallisation, accompanied by slight grain growth. After annealing at 800 ℃, there are deformed large grains and recrystallised small grains, and a variety of reinforcement mechanisms work in a coordinated way to make the tensile strength and elongation to 1 272 MPa and 12.39%, respectively.
