Effects of Alloying Elements on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of the Copper Forming Dies

Effects of Si and Ni addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Cu-12wt.%Al-5wt.%Fe-1wt.%Mn alloy have been investigated experimentally. Microstructure of the as-cast specimen is found to be refined markedly by additions of Ni and Si. By the addition of Ni, volume fraction of the ${\kappa}$ phase is increased, but volume fraction of the ${\gamma}$ phase is decreased. Hardness is increased with the addition of Ni, due to increasing of ${\kappa}$ phase which is harder than ${\gamma}$ phase. However, Charpy impact value is not significally decreased possibly due to the formation of isolate ${\kappa}$ phase.
