The microstructures of Cu75.15Al24.85 alloy before and after treatment at 15 GPa pressure and 750℃ for 15 min are analyzed by optical metallograph, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimeter, and its resistivity is also obtained through resistivity measuring instrument. According to the obtained results, the effects of high pressure treatment on the microstructure and resistivity are investigated. The results show that high pressure treatment can refine the microstructure, and increase the resistivity of the alloy. When the pressure is 3 GPa, the refinement is more remarkable and the resistivity reaches a maximal value.
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.
