Summary

The effect of Ag addition on the phase transformations that occur in the Cu-10&percnt; Al alloy was studied using differential thermal analysis, scanning electron and optical microscopies and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. The results indicated that Ag addition is responsible for the separation of the reverse martensitic transformation in two stages, and for the refinement of the &agr;-phase grains. The relative amount of the &bgr;<Subscript>1</Subscript>&apos; martensitic phase, retained on slow cooling (above 2 K min<Superscript>-1</Superscript> of cooling rate), and the relative fraction of phase &agr;<Subscript> 2</Subscript> are increased. The solubility limit of Ag in the matrix is close to 6 mass&percnt; and at this concentration the maximum stability of the &bgr; -phase is reached.
