Abstract:The present study on a Cu-Al-Be alloy has given the following characteristics: the addition of small concentration of beryllium to the eutectoidal alloy close to Cu3Al leads to a sharp decrease of the martensitic transformation temperatures. At the same time the composition corresponding to the maximum stability of the beta phase does not change significantly. The eutectoidal temperature is lowered, but the temperature of beta solution treatment remains the same. Moreover there is no change in the nature of the martensitic transformation (DO3 t ,
