In this article, the microstructural peculiarities and properties of dispersion-hardened beryllium bronze with Ni and Ti are studied after quenching (780 °C) in a supersaturated solid solution and aging (320 °C, 3h). Decomposition of the α-solid solution matrix is implemented by means of an intermittent reaction with a primary allocation intermetallic χ-phase (type Be12Ti) with a VCT-lattice. It is shown that the strength properties (yield strength, micro-hardness) of the alloy more than double after aging.
