High entropy alloys have gained significant interest due to several unique properties including enhanced radiation resistance. In this work, radiation induced segregation, a key phenomenon observed in alloys under irradiation, is examined for the first time at high angle grain boundaries under Ni heavy ion irradiation in the CoCrFeNiMn alloy. Our experimental study indicates significant Mn depletion and Co and Ni enrichment at grain boundaries. The segregation is discussed in the context of a proposed vacancy dominated radiation induced segregation mechanism and compared to existing models in conventional single core component alloys including stainless steels.
