The combined effect of the cooling rate and microalloying has been studied from suction casted Cu_(50)Zr_(50), Cu_(49.5)Zr_(50)Fe_(0.5) and Cu_(49)Zr_(50)Fe_1 at.% rods of 2 mm and 4 mm diameter. For the 2 mm samples, ~1000 K/s cooling rate, the microstructure mostly consists of B2 CuZr austenite and it is basically the same for all compositions. However, 0.5 at.% Fe addition promotes the formation of stress-induced B19' martensite upon wear testing thus improving the wear resistance of the alloy. For the 4 mm samples, ~250 K/s cooling rate, a multiphase intermetallic is predominant and when microalloyed with 0.5 at.% Fe, a relatively large volume fraction of as-cast B33 CuZr martensite is formed thus resulting in a reduction of the wear resistance. At high cooling rate the wear mechanism is predominantly delamination wear while for low cooling rate the large continuous grooves are indicative of abrasive wear.
