men, resulting in what is known as the cup-and-cone fracture. Double


cup-and-cone and rosette fractures sometimes occur. Several types of
tensile fractures are shown in Fig. 5.1.3.
Annealed or hot-rolled mild steels generally exhibit a yield point (see
Fig. 5.1.4). Here, in a constant strain-rate test, a large increment of
extension occurs under constant load at the elastic limit or at a stress just
below the elastic limit. In the latter event the stress drops suddenly from
the upper yield point to the lower yield point. Subsequent to the drop, the
yield-point extension occurs at constant stress, followed by a rise to the
UTS. Plastic ow during the yield-point extension is discontinuous;

successive zones of plastic deformation, known as Luders bands or


stretcher strains, appear until the entire specimen gage length has been
uniformly deformed at the end of the yield-point extension. This behavior causes a banded or stepped appearance on the metal surface. The

COPPER AND COPPER ALLOYS

bronzes); copper-tin-nickel alloys (nickel-tin bronzes); and copper-aluminum alloys (aluminum bronzes).
The family of alloys known as manganese bronzes, in which zinc is the
major alloying element, is included in the brasses.
Copper-Nickels These are alloys with nickel as the principal alloying element, with or without other designated alloying elements.
Copper-Nickel-Zinc Alloys Known commonly as nickel silvers,
these are alloys which contain zinc and nickel as the principal and
secondary alloying elements, with or without other designated elements.
Leaded Coppers These comprise a series of cast alloys of copper
with 20 percent or more lead, sometimes with a small amount of silver,
but without tin or zinc.
Miscellaneous Alloys Alloys whose chemical compositions do not
fall into any of previously described categories are combined under
miscellaneous alloys.
Temper Designations
Temper designations for wrought copper and copper alloys were originally specied on the basis of cold reduction imparted by the rolling of
sheet or drawing of wire. Designations for rod, seamless tube, welded
tube, extrusions, castings and heat-treated products were not covered. In
1974, ASTM B601 Standard Practice for Temper Designations for
Copper and Copper Alloys Wrought and Cast, based on an alphanumeric code, was created to accommodate this deciency. The general
temper designation codes listed in ASTM B601 by process and product
are shown in Table 6.4.15.
Coppers

Coppers include the oxygen-free coppers (C10100 and C10200), made by


melting prime-quality cathode copper under nonoxidizing conditions.
These coppers are particularly suitable for applications requiring high
electrical and thermal conductivities coupled with exceptional ductility
and freedom from hydrogen embrittlement.
The most common copper is C11000 electrolytic tough pitch. Its
electrical conductivity exceeds 100 percent IACS and is invariably selected for most wire and cable applications. Selective properties of wire
produced to ASTM B1 Hard Drawn Copper Wire, B2 Medium Hard
Drawn Copper Wire, and B3 Soft or Annealed Copper Wire are shown
in Table 6.4.16.
Where resistance to softening along with improved fatigue strength is
required, small amounts of silver are added. This permits the silvercontaining coppers to retain the effects of cold working to a higher
temperature than pure copper (about 600F versus about 400F), a
property particularly useful where comparatively high temperatures are
to be withstood, as in soldering operations or for stressed conductors
designed to operate at moderately elevated temperatures.
If superior machinability is required, C14500 (tellurium copper),
C14700 (sulfur copper), or C18700 (leaded copper) can be selected.
With these coppers, superior machinability is gained at a modest sacrice in electrical conductivity.
Table 6.4.16

Similarly, chromium and zirconium are added to increase elevatedtemperature strength with little decrease in conductivity.
Copper-beryllium alloys are precipitation-hardening alloys that combine moderate conductivity with very high strengths. To achieve these
properties, a typical heat treatment would involve a solution heat treatment for 1 h at 1,450F (788C) followed by water quenching, then a
precipitation heat treatment at 600F (316C) for 3 h.
Wrought Copper Alloys (Brasses and Bronzes)

There are approximately 230 wrought brass and bronze compositions.


The most widely used is alloy C26000, which corresponds to a 70 : 30
copper-zinc composition and is most frequently specied unless high
corrosion resistance or special properties of other alloys are required.
For example, alloy C36000 free-cutting brass is selected when extensive machining must be done, particularly on automatic screw machines. Other alloys containing aluminum, silicon, or nickel are specied for their outstanding corrosion resistance. The other properties of
greatest importance include mechanical strength, fatigue resistance,
ability to take a good nish, corrosion resistance, electrical and thermal
conductivities, color, ease of fabrication, and machinability.
The bronzes are divided into ve alloy families: phosphor bronzes,
aluminum bronzes, silicon bronzes, copper nickels, and nickel silvers.
Phosphor Bronzes Three tin bronzes, commonly referred to as
phosphor bronzes, are the dominant alloys in this family. They contain 5,
8, and 10 percent tin and are identied, respectively, as alloys C51000,
C52100, and C52400. Containing up to 0.4 percent phosphorus, which
improves the casting qualities and hardens them somewhat, these alloys
have excellent elastic properties.
Aluminum Bronzes These alloys with 5 and 8 percent aluminum
nd application because of their high strength and corrosion resistance,
and sometimes because of their golden color. Those with 10 percent
aluminum content or higher are very plastic when hot and have exceptionally high strength, particularly after heat treatment.
Silicon Bronzes There are three dominant alloys in this family in
which silicon is the primary alloying agent but which also contain appreciable amounts of zinc, iron, tin, or manganese. These alloys are as
corrosion-resistant as copper (slightly more so in some solutions) and
possess excellent hot workability with high strengths. Their outstanding
characteristic is that of ready weldability by all methods. The alloys are
extensively fabricated by arc or acetylene welding into tanks and vessels for hot-water storage and chemical processing.
Copper Nickels These alloys are extremely malleable and may be
worked extensively without annealing. Because of their excellent corrosion resistance, they are used for condenser tubes for the most severe
service. Alloys containing nickel have the best high-temperature properties of any copper alloy.
Nickel Silvers Nickel silvers are white and are often applied because of this property. They are tarnish resistant under atmospheric
conditions. Nickel silver is the base for most silver-plated ware.
Overall, the primary selection criteria can be met satisfactorily by one
or more of the alloys listed in Table 6.4.17.

c Values are for as-hot-rolled material.
d Values are for as-extruded material.
