Abstract
- Dynamic recrystallisation of CuAgZr alloys within a composition range of (3–7)wt% and (0.05–0.3)wt% is studied as a function of alloy composition, temperature and strain. Dynamic recrystallisation was investigated using hot-compression and hot-rolling experiments at temperatures between 500°C and 850°C. For with 7wt% and 0.05wt% , an optimised hot-rolling temperature of 750°C was found and a mean grain size of was established at a true strain of 2.2. Similar grain size distributions were found for the extended range of alloy compositions while the active mechanism for dynamic recrystallisation changes from necklace towards a particle stimulated nucleation mechanism. This change is driven by the volume fraction of the ternary phase as these particles are identified to stimulate nucleation of dynamic recrystallisation in the samples with increased content. The final tapes exhibit an outstanding combination of ultimate tensile strength of 1GPa and an electrical conductivity of 70%IACS at a true strain of 4.8 of cold work being applied.
