This report describes work on producing dispersion strengthened copper alloys using melting and casting techniques as opposed to more conventionally used powder metallurgy techniques. Two methods of approach are described. One method produces copper-thorium boride alloys by liquid phase precipitation. Cu-2% ThB4 alloys produced by this technique show 10 to 80% improved tensile properties, two-to-three orders of magnitude improved creep and stress-rupture properties together with a 2 to 10% increase in electrical resistivity. The second method produces a copper-aluminum oxide alloy by a solid state diffusion reaction following melting and casting. The precipitate formed is extremely fine, resisting recrystallization at 1000C for 24 hours. (Author).

The 1995 International Cryogenic Materials Conference (lCMC) was held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio, in conjunction with the Cryogenic Engineering Conference (CEC) on July 17-21. The interdependent subjects of the two conferences attracted more than eight hundred participants, who came to share the latest advances in low-temperature materials science and technology. They also came for the important by products of the conferences: identification of new research areas, of collaborative research possibilities, and the establishment and renewal of exploration professional relationships. Ted Collings (Ohio State University), as Chairmen of the 1995 ICMC; Ted Hartwig (Texas A&M University), as Program Chairman; and twenty-one other Program Committee members expertly arranged the ICMC technical sessions and related activities. The contributions of the CEC board and its Conference Chairman James B. Peeples of CVI, Inc., were central to the success of the eleventh CEC/ICMC. Jeff Bergen of Lake Shore Cryogenics served as Exhibits Chairman. Local arrangements and conference management were expertly handled under the guidance of Centennial Conferences, Inc. Skillful assistance with editing and preparation ofthese proceedings was provided by Ms. Vicky Bardos ofSynchrony, Inc.
