Is it possible to develop copper-silver alloy? Is there any work on this? I want to know alloy only for copper and silver, no other metals..If any of you has done research on this, pl. let me know what is the possible % of these metals can be mixed.
Dear Manas,
Such information is described in the phase-diagram of the two elements (Cu and Ag). Phase diagrams can be found on the internet and show the amount of elements that dissolves into another element as a function of temperature.
For the Ag-Cu mixture, indeed they are mixable (hence may form an alloy), although with limitations to the concentrations; see their phase-diagram
Regards,
Erik
Hi, Manas!
The article "The Ag-Cu (silver-copper) system" by P.R. Subramanian and J.H. Perepezko ought to be a good starting point:
Journal of Phase Equilibria (1993), 14 (1), pp 62-75.
Regards,
Daniel
