Abstract

In this study, the microstructure and mechanical properties of a Cu-rich multiple-principal-element alloy with the composition (Cu50Ni20Cr20Mn10)95Al5 (at.%) were investigated. It was found that after 900 °C/1 h annealing process, the as-cast alloy has achieved promising mechanical properties with a yield stress of 510 MPa, an ultimate tensile stress of 820 MPa and tensile elongation of 30 %. These properties are superior to those of traditional nickel–aluminum bronze (NAB) alloys. Moreover, the as-annealed alloy exhibited much better anti-corrosion properties with respect to the NBA alloys. Transmission electron microscopy observations showed that high-number-density nano-scaled L12-type ordered particles have precipitated in the Cu-rich phase after heat treatment and this was regarded as the main mechanism responsible for the enhancement of yield stress.
