Tensile tests have been conducted at 300 and 500° C on specimens of unidirectionally grown aluminium–CuAl2 eutectic of various orientations and at 300 and 400° C on polycrystalline samples of this alloy. The tensile results, deformation and failure mechanisms, and spheroidization phenomena are described.
