description The CoCrFeNi system is one of the most important high entropy alloys (HEAs) systems. By adding and adjusting the alloy element components and using different synthesis methods, different phases, organization and microstructure can be obtained, thus improving their properties. In this study, CoCrFeNiTi<sub>x</sub> HEAs with various Ti contents (x in molar ratio, x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) were fabricated by an electrochemical process by virtue of different oxides. The impacts of different Ti contents on the structure, distribution of elements, mechanical properties and corrosion behavior were researched using XRD, EDX and other testing methods. The bulk CoCrFeNiTi<sub>x</sub> (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) HEAs could be obtained through vacuum hot pressing sintering process (VHPS), which had a single-phase FCC structure. The results of the study showed that the bulk CoCrFeNiTi<sub>x</sub> exhibited superior ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and hardness, with the UTS of CoCrFeNiTi as high as 783 MPa and the hardness of CoCrFeNiTi<sub>1.5</sub> reaching 669 HV. The corrosion behavior of CoCrFeNiTi<sub>x</sub> (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) HEAs in 0.5 M H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>, 1 M KOH and 3.5 wt% NaCl was improved with addition of Ti. CoCrFeNiTi<sub>x</sub> (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) HEAs have great potential for application in the fields of biomedical coating and aerospace, as well as extreme military industry, etc.
