Microstructure and electromagnetic properties of heavily cold worked Cu-20 wt.%Nb wires
Fiber or ribbon reinforced in-situ metal matrix composites (MMCs) consisting of Cu and 20 wt.% Nb can be produced by large strain wire drawing. The microstructure of the composites is investigated by means of optical and electron microscopy. The normal and superconducting properties of the MMC wires in the presence of external magnetic fields are examined and compared to the electromagnetic properties of pure Cu wires. The findings are discussed on the basis of the microstructural changes during deformation. The current results substantiate that the amount of internal boundaries and the filament spacing have considerable influence on the normal and superconducting properties of Cu-20%Nb

Microstructure and properties of a deformation-processed Cu-Cr-Ag in situ composite by directional solidification
Cu-7Cr-0.07Ag alloys were prepared by casting and directional solidification, from which deformation-processed in situ composites were prepared by thermo-mechanical processing. The microstructure, mechanical properties, and electrical properties were investigated using optical microscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, tensile testing, and a micro-ohmmeter. The second-phase Cr grains of the directional solidification Cu-7Cr-0.07Ag in situ composite were parallel to the drawing direction and were finer, which led to a higher tensile strength and a better combination of properties
