Tensile Properties with Annealing Temperature

Variation of Tensile Properties with increasing Annealing. Temperature following varying amounts of Cold Work. 

The tests were carried out on two series of tensile test pieces from sheets of aluminium, the one 0-5 mm. thick, Type la, 

Investigation of the duration of time necessary for complete Anneal at various Temperatures. Preliminary tests have been carried out with a view to determining the minimum time necessary to give the properties characterising each temperature.  

The following results were obtained for the two series — Bath Temperature Duration of Time 

Whatever the amount of work, the following stages can be distinguished —

Chapter I. (a) Variation in the mechanical properties (Tensile Strength, Elastic Limit, Elongation, Shock Resistance, and Hardness) with the amount of cold work. (6) Variation in these mechanical properties with annealing temperature (after cold work).

Effect of exposure to elevated temperature with load on room-temperature tensile properties of annealed and heat-treated 16 mm % in.) diam bar... 

The melting point of aluminium (660°C). The operating temperature usually reaches 750-850°C in pretreatment and 700°C in the bath, causing a loss in tensile properties of cold-drawn wire. On the other hand, if cold-worked material which is to be subsequently annealed is used in this process the annealing and coating operations may be combined, with obvious economic advantage. 

The effect of the annealing temperature on the initial modulus is also presented in Figure 20.8. The moduli of monofilaments annealed at 160 °C for 30 min are higher than those of normal monofilaments, because the matrix polymers are recrystallized with a low PHB content, and the LCP molecules in the domain are reoriented with a high PHB content. The thermal treatment of the PHB/PEN/PET fibers can be an effective way to improve the tensile properties, especially the tensile modulus, and high-speed winding may be a promising way to obtain fibers... 

Another exhibition of exceptionally high strength and ductility was also revealed in HPT-produced Ti, when we studied the influence of annealing on its tensile mechanical properties at room temperatures [9], In this case enhanced strength and ductility was observed in CP Ti after HPT and short annealing at temperatures below 300 °C. Let us consider the features of mechanical behavior of this CP Ti with a linkage to its microstructure. 

Also, the effect of one-zone draw annealing has been studied [64]. The optimum drawing temperature is around 95 °C. However, the routes for achieving fibers with optimum tensile properties are different for resins with different molecular weights. Two-zone drawing and annealing improves significantly the drawability of PPS fibers and enhances the tensile properties [65]. 

In this paper, the BPDA-PFMB/PEI molecular composites were oriented by means of zone annealing/drawing slightly above the glass transition temperatures of the respective molecular composites (280 - 400 °C). The dependence of draw ratio on tensile modulus, crystal orientation, and birefringence was determined as a function of composition. The relationship between structure (crystal orientation) and tensile property (modulus) of drawn films has been examined by comparing crystal chain orientations with the prediction of affine deformation (12-16). 

The a -f- p Alloy Ti-6A1-4V The ductility of annealed Ti-6A1-4V is fairly independent of temperature between room temperatiire and 77 K. Below 77 K, it decreases rapidly as the temperature continues to fall toward 20 K. The ductility of the annealed alloy is twice as great as that of the solution-treated-and-aged material—e.g., Sb77k = 11.4% as compared with 4.9% (at normal interstitial levels). Reducing the interstitial content influences the tensile properties only marginally but improves the fi acture toughness by 130% at room temperature, and by 40% at20K...

As a binary alloy containing 2.5 wt% copper, IMI 230 combines the formability and weldability of unalloyed titanium with improved mechanical properties particularly at elevated temperatures. This alloy can be used at temperatures up to 350 °C (660 °F) and is used in the annealed condition as sheet, forgings and extrusions for fabricating components such as bypass ducts of gas turbine engines. Aging treatment raises room-temperatiu e tensile properties by about 25%, and almost doubles the elevated-temperature properties (e.g., creep at 200 °C).
