Conclusions
-
1.
The addition of magnesium to bronzes OF6.5-0.15 and KMts3-1 in amounts of 0.1 and 0.2% respectively substantially increases their resistance to small plastic deformation, particularly under long-term static and cyclic stress.
-
2.
The effect of magnesium is due to its surface activity in copper-base alloys. The adsorption of magnesium on internal surfaces sharply inhibits grain growth, resulting in a fine-grained structure, and also induces the formation of segregates at defects in the crystal structure.
