Description
Summary:The elastic limit is a critical parameter in spring design, which has a significant impact on the spring characteristic. The influence of cold drawing on the strength, elastic limit, elastic after-effect, and microstructure of 07Cr17Ni7Al ultrafine wire with a diameter of 0.3 mm for valve springs is investigated using room temperature tensile tests, single arm bending method, optical microscope(OM), X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). Different mathematical models are used to fit and analyze the deformation and martensite content, deformation-elastic limit, and stress-elastic after-effect. The results show that the solid solution 07Cr17Ni7Al wire is composed of austenite and a small amount of ferrite. Cold drawing transforms austenite into martensite, the content of deformation-induced martensite (DIM) increases with increasing deformation. The relationship between DIM content and cold-drawn equivalent strain (η) conforms to the Olson-Cohen model. When η reaches 1.64, the DIM content is about 92%, and the DIM reaches saturation. The tensile strength of wire exhibits a linear relationship with η, and the larger the deformation, the higher the tensile strength. The relationship between the elastic limit and the η follows an “S” shaped curve and conforms to the DoseResp model. The elastic limit increases with increasing deformation. When the η reaches 1.64 or more, the elastic limit tends to be gentle. The elastic after-effect increases with increasing stress, which conforms to the PWL2 model. There exists a “critical stress for elastic after-effect”. When the stress exceeds this critical value, the rate of elastic after-effect increases by 2-11 times with increasing stress. When the η is 1.64-2.41, the 07Cr17Ni7Al wire has good mechanical and elastic properties.
