CuAlBe alloy is proposed as a solution for mechanical actuators such as gears that work in environments with possible explosive atmosphere. Made of CuBe master alloy and pure aluminum in a induction furnace the material present large grains in melted state. After the hot rolling (heated 600s at 900°C) of the ingots small variation of chemical composition was observed based on the oxidation of the material, appearance of small cracks on the edges and a preferential orientation of the grains along the lamination direction. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the microstructural states of CuAlBe as laminated and heat treated states.}, type={Article}, title={Structural and Mechanical Properties of Hot Rolled CuAlBe Non-Spark Alloy Explosion}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/130945/PDF-MASTER/AMM-2024-1-43-Cimpoesu.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2024.147817}, keywords={Anti-spark material, SEM, EDS, cold rolling, indentation}, }
