Abstract
<p>Microstructure and properties of Cu<sub>1-x</sub>Zn<sub>1-y</sub>Al<sub>1-z</sub> ranging through (0.29 <X< 0.30; 0.74 <Y< 0.75; and 0.83 <Z< 0.96) alloys obtained by the Self- propagating High-temperature Synthesis (SHS) were examined. The microstructural and mechanical properties were examined, respectively by X-ray diffraction, tensile tests and Brinell hardness. The obtained results showed that the modification of composition lead to the formation of new phases. Therefore, this microstructure affects strongly the mechanical properties of the selected samples. In this study, we will also highlight the SHS technology and prove that it can alternate the conventional methods regarding the development of a Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs).</p><p> </p>
