Dispersion strengthening of copper by internal oxidation of rapidly solidified Cu–RE alloys
Abstract
Rapidly solidified ribbons of Cu-0.5-at.% Er and Cu-0.5 at.% Yb alloys have been prepared by melt spinning. An overall assessment of the ribbons has shown that up to three microstructural regions are distinguished: fine equiaxed grains, zone with a columnar structure and coarse equiaxed grains. Their number, type and height are controlled by wheel velocity. The growth behavior of dispersed intermetallic particles depends on the obtained microstructure, i. e., on the ribbon thickness. The large particles in thin ribbons coarsened by bulk diffusion, controlled by the diffusivity of the rare earth (RE) elements, and grow with the cube root of time at all temperatures. In thick ribbons with a high fraction of the coarse equiaxed zone, the coarsening takes place much more rapidly along the grain boundaries, which became a dominant transport mechanism.
