MICROSTRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF COPPER ALLOYS WITH DIFFERENT ZINC CONTENT
The paper presents the results of a microstructural analysis of copper alloys produced in the Copper Mill Sevojno. The analyzed materials comprise high-purity copper (Cu-ETP and Cu-DHP) and a series of brass alloys with varying zinc content (CuZn10, CuZn15, CuZn28, CuZn30, CuZn33, CuZn37). Various thermomechanical treatments were conducted on the s...

EFFECT OF PARTICLE SHAPE AND SIZE OF COPPER POWDERS ON THE PROPERTIES OF SINTERED PARTS
The particle shape and size of the starting powders represent the most important physicalproperties, on which the quality of the compacts and final sintered products depends. Two types ofpowder were analyzed in the paper - electrolytic copper powder with a dendritic particle shape andwater-atomized copper powder with an irregular particle shape. Th...

THERMAL AND MICROSTRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF THE LOWMELTING Bi–In–Sn TERNARY ALLOYS
Low-melting alloys, based on bismuth, indium, and tin, have found commercial use in soldering,safety devices, coatings, and bonding applications, due to their low melting point temperature ofeutectic compositions and small differences between their liquidus and solidus temperatures.Based on this, the accurate knowledge of their thermal properties s...

STUDY OF THERMAL PROPERTIES AND MICROSTRUCTURE OF THE Sn-Ag ALLOYS
Thermal properties and microstructure of the Sn-10% Ag and Sn-20% Ag alloys were experimentally investigated in this study. Melting behavior of the alloys were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Microstructure of the alloys was analyzed by optical microscopy. The xenon-flash method was used for the measurements of thermal diffus...

THERMODYNAMIC CALCULATION OF PHASE EQUILIBRIA OF THE Cu-Al-Mn ALLOYS
Cu-alloys have been intensively studied because of their high thermal conductivity, good electrical and shape memory properties and low cost. Cu-Al-Mn alloys show a higher ductility and elongation in relation to the other Cu-based alloys, as well as a good potential for a cold drawing. Therefore, the investigation of these alloys is ...

THERMODYNAMIC CALCULATION OF THE Al-Sn-Ga PHASE DIAGRAM
Phase diagram of the Al-Sn-Ga ternary system was calculated using optimized thermodynamic parameters for binary sub-systems based on CALPHAD method. Four vertical sections were calculated: Ga0.5Sn0.5-Al, Al0.5Sn0.5-Ga, Al0.5Ga0.5-Sn, and Al0.9GaSn0.1-Ga. Calculated liquidus projection of the Al-Sn-Ga ternary system and isothermal sec...

COMPARATIVE PREDICTION OF THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES FOR Ga-Sn-Zn SYSTEM
The results of the comparative prediction of thermodynamic properties for Ga-Zn-Sn system are presented in this paper. Two thermodynamic predicting models were used for the calculation – one symmetrical (Muggianu), one assymetrical (Toop) model and general solution model. The calculations were done for different sections in exa...
