Cu-12Al-xMn (x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4%, mass fraction) alloys were produced using powder metallurgy to investigate the effect of Mn content on the alloy's microstructure and mechanical properties. The Cu-12Al (no Mn) and Cu-12Al-1Mn (1 wt% Mn) alloys consisted of the α+γ phases, where the size of the α grains in the Cu-12Al-1Mn alloy are much larger. Mn effectively inhibited the eutectoid transformation at a concentration above 1 wt%. Furthermore, the β phase was converted to the β′martensite phase, which had a monoclinic structure after slow cooling. The phases of the alloy changed from the α+γ phases to the α+β′+γ phases with the further addition of Mn, and the tensile strength of the 3 wt% Mn alloy was 380.59 MPa. The addition of Mn did not have a significant effect on the density of the alloy.
