On the effect of heating of two-phase alloyed brasses on morphological peculiarities of intermetallic inclusions

Changing the morphology of intermetallic inclusions a two-phase alloyed brass is studied during its heating in a hot deformation temperature range. During heating, the redistribution of elements between silicide inclusions and matrix solution is found to occur, which, in a temperature range of 750–830°С, results in the silicide surface exfoliation and loss of coherence.
