A 500 °C isothermal section for the Al-Au-Cu system

The Al-Au-Cu system and its associated ternary alloys and intermetallic compounds is surprisingly poorly known, and the authors could find no phase diagram for it in the literature. This article addresses this omission by presenting an isothermal section at 500 degC, derived with the aid of X-ray di...

More Information
Summary:The Al-Au-Cu system and its associated ternary alloys and intermetallic compounds is surprisingly poorly known, and the authors could find no phase diagram for it in the literature. This article addresses this omission by presenting an isothermal section at 500 degC, derived with the aid of X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), metallography, and hardness measurements.
