N2 - The evolution of the microstructure, physical and mechanical properties of pre-deformed samples of the non-stoichiometric alloy Cu-56at.%Au in the process of the L1o-type atomic ordering was studied. The duration of annealing at 250 °C ranged from 1 h to 2 months. Changes in microhardness and electrical resistivity at various stages of the disorder→order transition were found out, the microstructure was examined using a transmission electron microscope, XRD-scans and tensile tests were performed. Based on the resistometric results and XRD-analysis, the dependence of the fraction of the ordered phase vs. the annealing time was plotted. Consecutive changes in structural states observed during long-term annealing were considered through the competition between the energy of the elastic stresses, the surface energy and the energy of the dislocation structure. An abnormal increase in the strength properties of the alloy during annealing was found: the yield strength and microhardness of the initially deformed samples significantly increase (at 15 % and 30 %, respectively), at the same time there is a drop in electrical resistivity and an increase in plasticity. An attempt was made to describe the observed phenomena considering mutual effect of ordering and recrystallization. Discovered annealing hardening was explained in terms of the suppression of recrystallization by ordering, which is confirmed by the preservation of a high density of inherited dislocations in an ordered matrix and low plasticity of the annealed samples. The retardation in the recrystallization rate with an increase in the preliminary deformation strain of the alloy was discovered. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
