Effect of Nickel Additives and a Constant Magnetic Field on the Structure and Properties of Aged Copper–Beryllium Alloys

Аннотация

The results of an integrated experimental study of the effect of doping nickel additives (0.4 and 1.0 wt %) on the kinetic processes that occur during the artificial aging of copper–beryllium alloys in a constant magnetic field are described. A “negative” magnetoplastic effect, the magnitude of which reaches ∼35%, is discovered. The presence of nickel additives leads to a significant increase in the microhardness of the alloys and a change in their lattice parameters and fine structure; however, a change in the quantitative content of additives from 0.4 to 1.0 wt % ambiguously affects the measured quantities.
