Abstract

This article presents data regarding the research paper entitled "Hierarchically activated deformation mechanisms to form ultra-fine grain microstructure in carbon containing FeMnCoCr twinning induced plasticity high entropy alloy [1]". In this article we provide supporting data for describing the associated mechanisms in microstructure evolution and grain refinement of a carbon-doped TWIP high-entropy alloy (HEA) during thermomechanical processing. Microstructural characterization before and after deformation was performed using scanning electron microscope (SEM) outfitted with EBSD detector and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used for microstructure observation and investigation of nanostructure evolution during deformation. Inverse pole figure (IPF) map, grain boundary map and kernel average misorientation map (KAM) were used for systematic analysis of nanostructural evolution and deformed heterostructure consisting of hierarchical mechanical twinning, shear-banding, microbanding and formation of strain-induced boundaries (SIBs).
