Abstract
In previous papers the influence of quenching and annealing treatments on the electrical resistivity of alloys has been measured and interpreted as influence of the quenched-in vacancies upon kinetics of short-range order formation. In the present paper it is investigated under which conditions values corresponding to the equilibrium of short-range order can be found. It has been shown that such equilibrium values can be obtained only in a temperature range limited to both sides and that this range can be checked and extended by suitable combinations of heat treatments. The resistivity values measured for Au-Ag and Au-Pd alloys are discussed from this point of view.
