Dense, high-entropy carbide cobalt-bonded hardmetals with two different compositions, namely (Hf-Ta-Ti-Nb-V)C-19.2 vol% Co and (Ta-Ti-Nb-V-W)C-19.2 vol% Co, were successfully manu-factured by gas pressure sintering (SinterHIP) at 1400^◦ C and 100 bar Ar pressure. The microstructure of these hardmetals consists of a rigid skeletal carbide phase embedded in a tough Co binder phase. EDS mappings showed that the high-entropy carbide phase did not decompose and that a typical hardmetal microstructure was realized. Only in the case of the (Hf-Ta-Ti-Nb-V)C-Co hardmetal was some undissolved TaC and HfO₂, as well as some clustered vanadium titanium carbide phase, found, resulting in a split-up of the HEC phase into two very similar HEC phases. This resulted in a reduced hardness to fracture toughness ratio for this composition. Measurements of magnetic saturation polarization showed values between 57.5% and 70% of theoretical magnetic saturation polarization, indicating marginal dissolution of the carbide-forming metal elements in the binder phase. The hardness value HV10 for (Hf-Ta-Ti-Nb-V)C-19.2 vol% Co was 1203 HV10 and 1432 HV10 for (Ta-Ti-Nb-V-W)C-19.2 vol% Co.
