- Manganese, zinc and aluminium generally reduce the stacking fault energy of a copper alloy. Of these three elements, aluminium is the most potent, reducing the stacking fault energy at a rate of about 3 x Zn. Manganese provides a smaller decrease in stacking fault energy compared to zinc, generally about 0.2 x Zn.
- the alloys of the present disclosure preferably comprise manganese, zinc and aluminium in amounts that confer a stacking fault energy similar to that conferred by 22.5 to 35 at.% zinc. In certain examples, the alloys of the present disclosure comprise aluminium, zinc and manganese in the following amounts:
- (3 x atomic percent of aluminium) + atomic percent of zinc + (0.2 x atomic percent of manganese) is between 22.5 at.% and 35 at.%, such as between 23.5 at.% and 32.5 at.%, between 24 at.% and 31 at.%, between 24.5 at.% and 30.5 at.%, between 25 at.% and 30 at.%, between 25.5 at.% and 29.5 at.%, between 26 at.% and 29.5 at.%, between 26.5 at.% and 29.5 at.%, or between 27 at.% and 29 at.%.
- the ductility of a typical brass is largely a consequence of mechanical twinning within its microstructure.
- the ability of an alloy to twin is directly related to its stacking fault energy.
- An alloy with a low stacking fault energy generally twins more easily and is more ductile than an alloy with a high stacking fault energy.
- Increasing the nickel content of a copper alloy typically increases the alloy's stacking fault energy, thus increasing its strength but also decreasing its ductility. This can be less desirable for industry since the alloy requires more force to work it into shape.
- the alloys of the present disclosure preferably have more copper than nickel in atomic percent terms and are therefore more ductile and more easily worked compared to high-nickel alloys.
- the atomic percent ratio of coppennickel may be at least 2, such as at least 3, or at least 4, at least 4.5, at least 5, at least 5.5, at least 6, at least 6.5, at least 7, at least 7.5, at least 8, at least 8.5, at least 9, at least 9.5, at least 10, at least 10.5, at least 11 , at least 11.5, at least 12, at least 12.5, at least 13, at least 13.5, at least 14, at least 14.5, at least 15, at least 15.5, at least 16, at least 16.5, at least 17, at least 17.5, at least 18, at least 18.5, at least 19 or at least 19.5.
- Copper is also known to be highly antimicrobial in a range or environments. Accordingly, the alloys of the present disclosure may be applied in situations where microbial resistance is desired. For example, the alloys described herein may be used in the manufacture of an autoclave, a door knob, cookware or a food container.
- the alloys described herein are preferably low- or non-sparking, ie, they do not readily spark when they are struck mechanically, cut by metal tools or abraded/ground, thereby making them safe for use in volatile environments.
- the nickel in the present alloys may confer resistance to corrosion and increase the solubility of manganese and copper. Moreover, nickel may also hinder dezincification of the alloy in service. Dezincification occurs when zinc atoms migrate to grain boundaries and to the surface, enriching these areas locally with zinc and causing localised corrosion and weakness in the alloy.
- certain alloys of the present disclosure may be predominantly single phase (alpha/face-centred-cubic crystal structure) or multi-phase, depending on constitution and applied heat treatment.

- Cu-Ni-Mn-Zn-AI alloy charge balances with a calculated final volume of 40 cm 3 were made from additions of near-pure copper, zinc and nickel.
- Manganese was added using a commercial 50/50 wt.% copper-manganese master alloy. Alloys were made in a two-step process: 1. Cu-Mn-Ni buttons were made in a Buhler electric arc melting furnace via cyclic melting of the copper and nickel balances with the copper-manganese master alloy. A titanium-gettered argon atmosphere was produced via purging of the melting chamber with high purity argon three times over and then evacuating using both roughing and turbo vacuum pumps to the order of 10 4 mbar.
- the melting chamber was then filled to 60% of atmospheric pressure with high purity argon. This was followed by melting a titanium getter. Homogeneity of the Cu-Ni-Mn buttons was obtained via first melting of the nickel shot in direct contact with copper (thus allowing the copper to melt into the molten nickel). Repeated melting of the newly formed Cu-Ni alloy followed by melting of the Cu-Ni buttons into the Cu-Mn master alloy produced homogenous Cu-Ni-Mn buttons.
- the castings (100 mm x 16 mm x 35 mm) were sectioned into 50 mm x 16 mm x 35 mm blocks. One half of the casting was used for metallographic examination and hardness testing of the as-cast structure. The remaining half of the casting was processed via hot rolling and heat treatment. Initial heat treatment of the as-cast structures was conducted at 750 ° C for two hours (with this heat treatment found to completely dissolve the as-cast microstructure in the Cu-Ni-Mn-Zn-AI alloys). Samples were then hot rolled at 750 ° C in cross directions from a starting thickness of 16 mm down to 8 mm.
- the purpose of the hot rolling process was to close any casting pores or defects, consolidating the material, and to refine and recrystallise the grain structure, essentially reproducing industry processing.
- samples were cyclically removed from a 750 ° C furnace and rolled in 0.25 mm increments to their final thickness of 8 mm.
- samples received a final heat treatment of 750 ° C for two hours to produce the final processed alloys in a hot rolled and annealed condition.
- processed alloy billet had approximate dimensions of 8 mm x 35 mm c 90 mm.
- Hardness testing was conducted on suitably prepared sections removed from the as- cast and processed samples. Hardness testing was conducted using a Struers duramen A300 hardness testing machine with a 1 kg load and a five second dwell time, following suitable calibration of the semiautomated machine on a 400 HV test block. Minimum 20 hardness indents were conducted for each sample.
- Table 1 Compositions and characteristic mechanical properties of specific alloys (processed samples hot rolled at 750 °C and annealed at 750 °C for 2 hrs).
- the techniques described above in this example may be suitable for laboratory scale alloy production, those skilled in the art will understand that other methods may be used, particularly for industrial scale alloy production.
- the alloys may be produced by large scale melting of all alloy constituents in an induction or resistance heated furnace until completely molten. This may include alloying higher melting-point constituents first while progressively lowering the melt temperature as lower melting-point constituents are added to avoid off-gassing of zinc and/or manganese.
- Additives, fluxes or coke may be used to reduce oxygen, hydrogen and other impurities in the melt and to protect the melt surface from further oxidation or degradation.
- the melt may then be cast as ingots.
- the ingots may then be cast or pressure die-cast directly into products.
- the alloy could also be continuously cast through a water-cooled graphite or copper or other metal nozzle in a fixed cross section to produce plate, bar, rod or hollow-section products.
- the melt may be twin-roll strip cast into sheet products. Products may be subsequently homogenised at temperatures above 700 °C, hot rolled, hot-extruded, hot-drawn or forged to their required shape at temperatures above 600 °C. Products may be cold-worked (rolled, extruded, forged or drawn) and tempered or hardened by low-temperature annealing.
