| Abstract: | The decomposition of supersaturated, disordered, solid solutions in the binary Cu-2 wt % Be and the ternary Cu-2 wt % Be-0.6 wt % Co alloys was found to be initiated through the formation of GP zones. The ordered CuBe phase (B2 structure) was found to form from these clusters by continuous ordering. The morphology, the crystallography and the mechanism of formation of the precipitate phase is discussed in this paper. |
