A coating based on high-entropy carbide was synthesized by using a coaxial magnetoplasma accelerator for generating a high-speed arc discharge plasma. The plasma was used to deposit the coating on a copper substrate under appropriate conditions. In the process of the plasma-dynamic synthesis, a stable high-entropy impurity-free compound TiZrNbHfTaC5 with the cubic Fm3m structure was formed. This compound has a sufficiently dense and uniform structure (with the porosity of ~7 %) ~ 20 μm thick. The resulting coating exhibits increased physical and mechanical characteristics including nanohardness of ~32 GPa and Young's modulus of ~303 GPa. These values make the material promising for producing hardened, wear-resistant and heat-protective products. Keywords: plasma, arc discharge, high-entropy carbide, coating.
