Abstract:
A wire rod made of an aluminum alloy. The aluminum alloy includes Al crystal grains, an Al—Zr compound, and an Al—Co—Fe or Al—Ni—Fe compound. The aluminum alloy includes high-angle tilt crystal grain boundaries, each of which has a difference between crystal orientations in both its sides of 15 degrees or more, and low-angle tilt crystal grain boundaries, each of which has a difference between crystal orientations in both its sides of 2 degrees or more and less than 15 degrees. An average grain diameter of ones of the Al crystal grains surrounded by the high-angle boundaries is 12 μm or more. An average grain diameter of the ones of the Al crystal grains surrounded by the high-angle boundaries, ones of the Al crystal grains surrounded by the high-angle boundaries and the low-angle boundaries, and ones of the Al crystal grains surrounded by the low-angle boundaries, is 10 μm or less.
