Summary: | The phase transformation behavior and heat treatment response of Cu-2.8Ni-0.6Si (wt%) alloy sub- jected to different heat treatments were studied by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy observation, and measurement of hardness and electrical conductivity. The variation of hardness and electrical conductivity of the alloy was measured as a function of aging time. On aging at the temperature below TR (500-550 ℃) in Cu-2.8Ni-0.6Si alloy, the transformation undergoes spinodal decomposi- tion, DO22 ordering, and δ-NiaSi phase. On aging at the temperature above TR (500-550 ℃), the transformation products were precipitations of 8-Ni2Si. The free energy versus composition curves were employed to explain the microstructure observations. |
