Abstract-The tensile behavior of Cu-Cr-Zr alloy was investigated at different temperatures. The material investigated was heat treated to the following condition: solutionizing 980°C -40 min then water quenching, aging 460°C -4 h. The test temperature was ranged from room temperature to 600°C at intervals of 100°C . Curves describing the tensile properties were obtained. The Vickers hardness, microstructure and fracture surface of the tested alloys were also studied. The results reveal that the tensile strength of Cu-Cr-Zr alloys decreases with the increase of temperatures. Additionally, due to fully recrystallization, a combination of a high tensile strength with a fairly good plasticity can be achieved at 200°C. The suitable working temperature of Cu-Cr-Zr alloy ranges form room temperature to 300°C.The results also indicate that the mechanism of Cu-Cr-Zr alloy fracture is the nucleation, growth, extension and join of microvoid caused by second phase particle.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
