The Age Hardening Of Silver With Copper-Silicide, Joseph Edward Shaw
The Age Hardening Of Silver With Copper-Silicide, Joseph Edward Shaw
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The successful application of the phenomenon of precipitation hardening to aluminum and copper has indicated the possibility of hardening all metals in the same way. The phenomenon of age hardening was discoveredin 1911, and since that time much research has been carried on in all parts of the world on various alloy systems.

The increase in hardness is attributed to the manganese silicide being precipitated from solid solution and deposited between crystal planes. The subsequent softening which occurs on prolonging the period of reheating is believed to be due to an agglomeration of the dispersed hardening agent.
