Abstract: | Thermal behavior of α-(Cu–Al–Ag) alloys, i.e. alloys
with composition less than about 8.5 mass% Al, was studied using differential
scanning calorimetry (DSC), differential thermal analysis (DTA), scanning
electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and X-ray
diffractometry (XRD). The results indicated that the presence of silver introduces
new thermal events ascribed to the formation of a silver-rich phase and, after
addition higher amounts than 8 mass% Ag to the Cu–8 mass% Al alloy it
is possible to observe the formation of the γ1
phase (Al4Cu9), which is only
observed in alloys containing minimum of 9 mass% Al. These results may be
attributed to some Ag characteristics and its interaction with Cu and Al. |
