Side-bands of Cu-4% Ti alloy have been examined in detail by means of X-ray analysis using a Guinier camera. The side-bands become stronger and sharper with the increase of aging time
t. Side-bands formed at below 450°C (termed the early stage side-bands) approach the main lines kept at a fixed position with the progress of aging. On the other hand, side-bands formed at above 500°C (termed the later stage side-bands by the present authors) do not move, but the main lines move to the high-angle side.
The features of the early stage side-bands are as follows: The quantities
Q, which are caluculated from the angle
Δθ between the main line and the side-band by using the formula
Q=
h·tanθ⁄(
h2+
k2+
l2)·
Δθ, increase in proportion to log
t. The intensities of side-bands
I increase in proportion to log
t. The half widths of side-bands
W decrease in proportion to log
t. The relations
QH>
QL,
IH>
IL and
WH<
WL are obtained. Here the subscript
H or
L indicates that the values are those for the high- or low-angle side-bands, respectively. The asymmetry
QH⁄
QL increases linearly with the increase in
Q and the
WH⁄
WL decreases, irrespective of aging temperature. The
IH⁄
IL increases linearly with the increase in
Q in a rate, which is higher at low temperatures.
