5 powder can be allotized by high-energy ball milling in the order of Al, Ti, Cr, V, Nb. In the process of high-energy ball milling (MA), the hexagonal close-packed phase appeared when the milling time was more than 10 hours. After discharge plasma sintering, the microstructure of the alloy was dominated by fine grains, and the phase structure changed to body-centered cubic phase. The hardness of Ti

5 high entropy alloy increases with the increase of milling time, and the compressive plasticity increases first and then decreases. The optimal ball milling time is 10 h, at which the compressive strength is 2340 MPa and the reduction is 2.65%.
