Does anyone know if a Pourbaix Diagram could be constructed for a copper base alloy that contains five major elements (copper, iron, nickel, aluminum and manganese)?

Thanks for any help.

Probably not, because if the other elements were present in any significant amount they will likely change the way that the alloy interacts with the environment as you change conditions.
You can do these for limited ranges of environments.
