Description
Summary:Through the use of experimental design and response surface method, this research investigated the impact of temperature and holding time on the recrystallization faction of CuCrFeNi2Mn0.5 Alloy after 80% cold rolling. After conducting 17 heat treatment cycles, a model was developed to illustrate how recrystallization fraction is influenced by temperature and holding time. Using the developed model, the temperature and time conditions necessary to create 50 and 100% recrystallized structures were calculated. Microstructures study validated the findings from the model's predictions. Moreover, it was noted that the alloy maintained its phase stability under full annealing, but partial recrystallization resulted in the emergence of secondary phase precipitates. Additionally, the results from the tensile test indicated that the non-uniform microstructure exhibits a superior balance of strength and ductility compared to the uniform one.
