| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is important to understand variations of the morphology, structure, volume fraction, and composition of precipitates in age-hardenable copper alloys during aging, because their mechanical and physical properties are critically influenced by the precipitation behavior. In this study, extraction procedure has been employed to quantitatively evaluate the precipitation behavior of age-hardening copper alloys, such as Cu-Ti, Cu-Ni-Si, and Cu-Mg-P systems. When the alloys were submerged in an acid solution, only the Cu solid solution matrix was dissolved chemically, but both precipitates remained as insoluble residue. Subsequent structural and compositional analyses of the insoluble residue reveal the fraction and composition of the precipitates, together with those of the matrix. Therefore, we obtained refined microstructural information, and proposed the time-temperature-transformation diagram and revised phase diagram for some age-hardenable copper alloys.
