Abstract
Carbon interstitial solid solution strengthening is an effective strategy to simultaneously enhance
the strength and ductility of face-centered cubic high entropy alloys (HEAs). However, majority of
studies have confined to quasi-static condition. In this study, the dynamic and quasi-static tensile
mechanical behaviors of Fe

reaches to 1073 MPa and 1413 MPa at strain rate of 8×10

, respectively.
Whereas, the ductility of both HEAs declines remarkedly, with uniform elongation decreasing from 46.2%

and 67.4% at strain rate of 1×10

s

to 7.9% and 25.2% at strain rate of 8×10

. The thermally activated
dislocation motion and the phonon drag effects jointly contribute to the striking increment of yield
strength with increasing strain rate. The temperature rise during dynamic deformation gives rise to
stacking fault energy increasing, which inhibits the deformation twinning, resulting in the reduction of
strain hardening rate and thus the reduced ductility. In particular, with the assistance of C solid solution,

exhibits enhanced twinning formation capability and superior resistance to

, which enables a better combination of strength and
ductility upon dynamic loads. These findings provide deep insights into dynamic deformation behavior
of carbon interstitial face-centered cubic HEAs.
