Application of HPT processing under an applied pressure of 5 GPa for 10 revolutions at 1 rpm to each alloy produced an ultraf- ine-grained structure. Aging the HPT-processed alloys at 293 K for the longest period of 2.59 Ms ( 1 month) did not essentially change the dislocation densities and grain sizes of the alloys; however, the vacancy concentrations of the alloys gradually decreased with increasing natural aging time. The attained peak hardness of the Cu-Be-Co alloy on subsequent artificial aging at 593 K decreased as natural aging time increased, while the natural aging at 293 K for 2.59 Ms had no influence on the age-hardening behavior of the Cu-Ti alloy during artificial aging at 623 K. This result is ascribed to the difference in formation mechanisms of strengthening precipitates between two alloys; G.P. zones are directly formed in Cu-Be-Co alloy while β'-Cu,)Ti phase is formed via spinodal decomposition without nucléation events in Cu-Ti alloy. 收起
