The grain sizes of the alloys, severely deformed by 5-cycle ARB process, were refined down to about 0.4μm. The Cu-Ni-Be-Zr alloy, ARB-processed and peak-aged at 375°C, exhibited a tensile strength σu of 810MPa, an elongation εt of 9% up to failure and an electrical conductivity σ of 62%IACS. The Cu-Ni-P-Zr alloy, initially aged at 450°C, then ARB-processed and peak-aged at 400°C, had the values of σu=780MPa, εt =6% and σ=56%IACS. © 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.}, pages = {2417--2422}, title = {Mechanical properties of precipitation strengthening Cu-base alloys highly deformed by ARB process}, volume = {10}, year = {2011} }
