Abstract

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 still a challenge, especially from a thermodynamic point of view due to 
a lack of thermodynamic data of Cu-Al-Mn ternary system in the literature. 
Thermodynamic calculation of phase diagrams of Cu0.73Mn0.10-Al and Cu0.70Mn0.30-Al vertical sections 
and isothermal sections at 25 and 400°C is presented in this work. Calculations were done using 
optimized thermodynamic parameters for binary sub-systems Cu-Al, Cu-Mn, Al-Mn and ternary 
system Cu-Al-Mn according to CALPHAD method and obtained results were discussed.
