Improved microstructure, mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of the Cu–Ni–Sn–Ti–Cr alloy due to Ce micro-addition

In this paper, new Cu–Ni–Sn–Ti–Cr and Cu–Ni–Sn–Ti–Cr–Ce alloys were prepared and studied. After solution treatment and 60% cold rolling, the Cu–Ni–Sn–Ti–Cr alloy with micro-hardness of 221 HV, a tensile strength of 598.1 MPa, elongation of 9.9% and electrical conductivity of 45.2% IACS was obtained...
