5. Conclusions
- All alloys, CuCr0.7, CuSc0.3, and CuHf0.7, showed substantial increases in hardness and electrical conductivity due to precipitation effects. A lower aging temperature and a higher degree of cold deformation resulted in an excellent interaction of strengthening effects. Regarding electrical conductivity, which was highly sensitive to the amount of alloying elements in the copper matrix, higher degrees of cold deformation, long aging durations, and enhanced temperatures were favorable due to a maximized segregation of alloying elements from the copper matrix.
- The time and temperature-dependent solid-state reactions resulted in different onset, peak temperatures of the continuously heated DSC measurements, and optimal aging temperatures in isothermal aging experiments. The enhanced heating rate during the DSC method shifted the effects to higher temperatures.
- The alloys CuSc0.3 and CuHf0.7 showed comparable precipitation behavior, including the onset and peak temperatures which reacted susceptible to cold deformation prior to the aging process. A cold rolled supersaturated solid solution promoted the precipitation of fine homogenously distributed precipitates. The difference between as-cast temperature treated specimens and all other cold rolled options was the most substantial. The degree of cross-section reduction due to cold rolling did not have a huge impact but continuously followed the trend to promote the precipitation reaction.
- CuCr0.7 appeared to be mainly influenced by the aging temperature. An initial cold rolling shifted the solid-state reactions to lower temperatures, but in a considerably lower degree compared to CuSc0.3 and CuHf0.7.
- The alternative alloying concepts containing scandium and hafnium show excellent benefits due to recrystallization appearing at conspicuously higher temperatures, compared to the benchmark alloy CuCr0.7.
