The Co diffusion in the as-cast high-entropy alloys Al$_{x}$FeNiCoCuCr ($x$ = 1, 1.5, 1.8) is studied by means of the tracer-diffusion method using the $^{60}$Cо isotope. As shown, the Co diffusion in the high-entropy alloys occurs by means of the vacancy mechanism and the diffusion coefficient decreases approximately in three times (from 3.21$\cdot$10$^{-16}$ to 0.98$\cdot$10$^{-16}$ m$^{2}$s$^{-1}$) with the increasing Al concentration. The decelerated Co diffusion is explained in terms of relatively large and negative enthalpy of mixing.

Key words: high-entropy alloys, $^{60}$Cо diffusion coefficient, structure, activation energy, melting temperature.
