Abstract: | AbstractIn this paper, the heat treatment called ‘a two-step aging process’ with the feature of the first step aging at a low temperature for a long time and the second step aging at a higher temperature for a short time has been proposed. Applying this process, the Cu–Cr–Zr alloy possessing both high strength and high conductivity can be acquired due to the formation of numerous tiny particles precipitated fully out from Cu matrix. |
