Initial microstructural features of conventional alloys were examined by microscopical analyzes and not only martensitic structure but also several kappa phases embedded in copper based matrix were observed. Then, thermal analyzes were performed in order to reveal out the solidification sequence under cooling and the findings on the crystallization were </span> <span style="line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;">in </span> <span lang="en-us" style="line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;" xml:lang="en-us">good agreement with the data reported earlier. </span> <span lang="en-us" style="line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;" xml:lang="en-us"> </span> <span lang="en-us" style="line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;" xml:lang="en-us"> <span>  </span> </span> </font> </p> <font face="Times New Roman" size="3"> </font>}, number={1}, publisher={Kocaeli University}
