The solid solution strengthening introduced by Ca (0.6 and 0.9at%) and Sn 0.5–2.5at%) was studied through tensile, compression and stress relaxation tests at room temperature, 373K (100°C) and 453K (180°C) on solution heat-treated and quenched specimens and compared with existing data for binary all...
