Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Au-Ti binary and Co added ternary and quaternary alloy systems were used in this study. Several trials were done to fabricate single crystals using OFZ method, but no single crystal was obtained. Probably, some complex phase reactions containing peritectic reaction is related to solidification. Then, instead of single crystal, we used polycrystal alloys for further researches. It was found that Ti-rich offstoichiometric alloys exhibit good mechanical properties, and that aging behavior is not observed in Au-Ti binary alloys but Co-added alloys only. The equilibrium second phase is A15 AuTi3 in the binary system but it is changed to be L12 phase by Co addition. By TEM observations the size of this precipitates is relatively large from sub nm to a few microns, and no clear microstructural change is recognized such as APB and vacancy cluster. Then, the anomalous low temperature aging must be due to the L12 precipitates stabilized by Co addition.
