Abstract—In recent years, the unique physical and mechanical properties of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have been the subject of increased attention of researchers. The study of the thermodynamic characteristics of such materials may be of interest for formulating the principles of the formation of structures with the required functional characteristics. Since the processes of structure and phase formation, as well as the diffusion mobility of atoms, the mechanism for the formation of mechanical properties, and thermal stability, differ significantly from similar processes in traditional alloys, HEAs are singled out into a special group of materials. The article presents a brief overview of the results of obtaining a high-entropy alloy by the combined method. At the first stage, a precursor layer was deposited by cold gas dynamic spraying (CGDS), and at the second stage, it was subjected to high-energy action using a laser. An alloy of the Al–Cr–Ni–Co–Fe type has been studied. By varying the ratio of the components, it was possible to obtain an almost equimolar composition for this system. A prediction of properties and structure is made on the basis of the phase composition of the system.
