<p>The invention provides a process for the manufacture of copper alloy products having improved processability. The alloys of composition (B) in Figure 1 are melted and atomized into continuous stream (C) which are spray cast into a coherent deposit (F). The spray cast alloys are characterized by a finer dispersion of intermetallic than is possible by conventional casting. The alloys are capable of being cold rolled to a reduction of up to 70 %. The spray cast alloys exhibit good electrical conductivity and a high yield strength. They are particularly suited for electrical spring contacts illustrated schematically in Figure 4.</p> |
