Improvement of Properties of Aluminum Bronze CuAl₇Mn₃ by Heat Treatments

Abstract:

Top domains of technology, such as aerospace, nuclear technology, electrical engineering, electronics, energy, require materials and alloys with special properties: superconductivity, superplasticity, high resistance to corrosion, shape memory, exceptional mechanical strength, magnetism, and resistivity. Aluminum bronzes are bronze with very good mechanical and chemical properties, which are factory profiles, strips, bearings, gears, valves, parts and fittings for chemical and food industry, gears, water pump housings, mainly parts corrosion resistant in aggressive environments.
