This study focused on the effect of electroslag remelting process (ESR) on microstructure and composition of as-cast Cu-Cr-Zr alloy. The results revealed that applying ESR process resulted in amore uniform distribution of alloying elements. However, slight aggregation of large precipitates andinclusions existed in as-cast ingot. It was observed that impurities like P, S and Mg which had significant effect on electrical property were eliminated after ESR process. Moreover, further optimization of alloy composition which in turn would affect its mechanical and electrical properties was obtained through using ESR technique, successfully.
