Abstract
The influence of the structural state of a copper–beryllium alloy on its resistance to friction fracture under adhesion interaction and abrasive wear has been investigated. It has been shown that the elastic interphase deformations that cause the tension of the crystal lattice of the particles of precipitated phase brings about a decrease in the wear resistance of the alloy at a retained high hardness. The relaxation of interphase deformations during the aging process leads to a significant increase in the wear resistance of the alloy, despite the reduction its hardness.
