Abstract
We used high-temperature x-ray diffraction and thermography to investigate phase transitions B2 ⇄ Al in alloys Cu-Pd around 40 at. % Pd concentration. In phase transition region B2 → Al in alloy Cu-39.5 at. % Pd, we observed the maxima in the heat capacity curve. Based on structural data, we show that the first maximum is due to structural transition bcc-fcc (B2-Al) and the second is due to a decrease in the atomic long-range order in superlattice B2 and to a continuing bcc-fcc transition. Using structural information, we analyzed the thermograph of the quenched alloy Cu-36 at. % Pd.
