The ageing processes in dental Ag-Pd-Cu-Au alloy were investigated by means of electrical resistivity measurements during anisothermal annealing. The main results obtained are as follows; (1) There are two obvious precipitation processes (stage I and stage II) during anisothermal annealing after quenching from above critical temperature. And the apparent difference in stage I attribute to solution treatment temperature. (2) Stage I occured at lower temperature, is one ageing process by the migration and annihilation of quenched-in excess vacancies. Another is stage II at higher temperature by the diffusion of equilibrium vacancies.
