- Fig. 16 shows SEM and microstructure photographs of the fracture surface after a 180 ° C tensile test using each specimen.
- the comparative alloy exhibits “cleavage cracks” along the crystal plane (crystal face), and no dimples are seen in the SEM photograph. Then, it is thought that “brittle fracture” occurred.
- the strength of the crystal grain boundaries of the alloy at high temperatures has been improved by the inclusion of a high concentration of P, so that it has changed from “brittle fracture” to “ductile fracture”. The same applies when Ni is contained.
- FIG. 19 is a microstructure of the copper alloy of the present invention (No. 8-2), and FIG. 20 is a component distribution by EDX analysis of FIG.
- the primary crystal a grows in a dendrite shape, Bi phase is observed in the gap, and Cu—P compound (Cu3P) and Ni—P compound (Ni3P) exist adjacent to this Bi phase. P and Ni are also dissolved in the primary crystal oc, which is thought to improve the matrix strength.
- the bronze-based low lead alloy of the present invention is a copper alloy suitable for various parts in a wide range of fields such as piping equipment (valves and joints) for water / hot water supply and steam, pressure equipment (casing), and the like. Since the alloy of the present invention is an alloy that improves the tensile strength, it is suitable not only for thin-walled parts such as piping equipment but also for structural parts. It is suitable for processing and molding electrical machinery products such as gas appliances, washing machines and air conditioners. In addition, the members suitable for the copper alloy according to the present invention are particularly water contact parts such as valves and faucets, that is, the empty ballores, butterfly banolebs, gate banolebs, grove banoles in ball valves and bonole levoles.
- toilet articles, kitchen utensils, bathroom articles, toilet articles, furniture parts, living room articles, sprinkler parts, door parts, gate parts, vending machine parts, washing machine parts, air conditioner parts, gas welders Parts, heat exchanger parts, solar water heater parts, automotive parts, molds and parts, bearings, gears, construction machine parts, railway vehicle parts, transportation equipment parts, materials, intermediate products, final products And can be widely applied to assemblies and the like.
- applications that can be used particularly at high temperatures include the following applications.
- Structural parts such as burners, gas nos, nore, flare nuts, Bonore taps, thermostat parts, Bonoleto, nuts, spindles, sliding parts (bearings, gears, pushes, sleeves, worm gears).
- the faucet fittings, faucet fittings, water supply and hot water supply parts, etc. are not used at 1 oo ° C or higher under normal use, but under conditions where cold / hot water is used alternately.
- the copper alloy of the present invention is significant in situations where it is exposed to high temperatures exceeding 100 ° C, such as hot air drying in dishwashers and the like.
