Abstract

Cu-0.3Cr-0.1Zr alloy (in mass%) is one of typical precipitation hardened copper- based alloys, and exhibited an excellent combination of high strength and high conductivities at the temperature range of 4 K to 300 K. The tensile properties, electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity and magnetization of precipitation hardened and cold-rolled Cu-0.3Cr-0.1Zr alloy were measures in comparison with oxygen free copper at cryogenic temperatures. The Cu- 0.3Cr-0.1Zr showed higher yield ratio (yield strength / tensile strength) and lower the ratio of yield strength to electrical resistivity at cryogenic temperature than oxygen free copper. It exhibited high electrical and thermal conductivities, excellent non-magnetic stability and very low magnetic permeability at 4.2 K.
