Definitions
- the alloy comprises, by weight, about 0»5%-6% antimony about 0.002-1% arsenic, up to about 1%, or more . tellurium, up to about 0.5% tin and the balance being; essentially lead.
- the alloy may be worked, e.g., reduced, by an amount greater than about 15%, preferably greater than about 50% and most preferably greater, than 80% or 90% and is preferably reduced by rolling in several successive stages of substantially equal percentage reductions.
- the temperature of the heat treatment is between about 180*C. and the alloy liquidus temperature, preferably, 200*C. to 252*C, and most preferably 220 ⁇ C. to 245"C.
- the time required to bring the alloy to the desired temperature varies according to the thickness of the alloy and the temperature and method of heating, with thinner strips of alloy, higher temperatures and/or higher heat transfer heating means requiring shorter times. It is preferred that the alloy be brought substantially completely to the desired temperature to realize the full effect of the heat treatment on,A ⁇ strengthening of the alloy. In a preferred embodiment, employing a molten salt bath at a temperature of about
