Longitudinal and shear ultrasonic wave velocities were measured in the quaternary compounds CuxAg1¡xInTe2 (0 · x · 1) using pulse echo technique. Measurements were carried out at 4 MHz frequency and at room temperature. Elastic moduli and acoustic impedance have been calculated. Results indicated that these parameters are influenced by the increased addition of copper from x = 0 to 1.
