Longitudinal grooves of various depths ranging from 0.001 in to 0.011 in were machined on the cylindrical surface of steel slugs prior to carrying out an automatic two-stage transfer heading operation. The longitudinal grooves were used to estimate the ‘critical groove depth’, which was defined as the depth of longitudinal groove that contained a ductile fracture crack just on the point of ‘opening out’ at the end of the heading process, thus giving a measure of the ductility of the wire. A half-replicate of a two-level factorial experiment was carried out to assess the effects and interactions of annealing temperature, annealing time, cooling rate and ageing temperature on the ductility of four different types of 1/2 in diameter cold heading steel wire. The results show that certain types of steel wires have optimum ductility in the ‘as-received’, cold-drawn, state. Other types of steel are shown to respond favourably to process annealing treatments, in which case annealing at 700°C for 1 hour followed by air cooling should give optimum ductility. It is shown that there is no general correlation between decreasing hardness and increasing ductility for steel wire.

The effects of annealing temperature and annealing time on mechanical properties of cold drawn pearlitic steel wires containing 0.84wt% of silicon were investigated. Annealing treatment was performed on cold drawn steel wires for the temperature range of 200°C to 450°C with the different annealing time of 30sec, 1min, 15min and 1hr. The increase of tensile strength at the low annealing temperatures would be related with strain ageing behavior, while the decrease of tensile strength at the high annealing temperature is due to the spheroidization of cementite plates and the occurrence of recovery of the lamellar ferrite in the pearlite.

The method adopted to manufacture copper clad steel wire in this study is cladding and welding and then drawing and annealing it. The effect of drawing deformation and annealing treatment on the grain size of α-Fe phase were studied. Experimental results show that the grain sizeα in cross section of α-Fe phase is decreased with the increase of the drawing deformation. Grains of the longitudinal section are elongated toward the drawing direction and appeared a strip shape. The grain size in cross-section of α-Fe phase is enhanced with the increase of the annealing time and annealing temperature, its length diameter ratio in longitudinal section is decreased oppositely. The grain size in cross section and length diameter ratio in longitudinal section are almost invariant in 850 °C for 2 h, the grain in longitudinal section tends to be equiaxial, the recrystallization processes is thus finished at this moment. Through the experimental data analysis, the regression equation about the relation of annealing temperature and annealing time of CCS with the grain size in cross section and length diameter ratio in longitudinal section are obtained.

The effect of the annealing atmosphere, the annealing temperature etc. on the hydrogen behavior in several Al-4% Mg alloys during heat treatment, was investigated. The results have shown that the hydrogen content in the as-cast slab is uniform, while the hydrogen content in the slab tends to be higher near the surface than in the interior after annealing. Such a tendency becomes more marked when annealing time is prolonged and Si and Fe content is lowered. The condensation of hydrogen near the surface can be seen only when it is annealed in a wet atmosphere. When annealed in a dry atmosphere, the hydrogen content near the surface becomes lower than in the center of the specimen. The hydrogen in Al-Mg alloys tends to be released to outside intrinsically at temperatures around 400°C and above. It is revealed that oxide film formed on the surface prevents the hydrogen from being released to outside.

Semiconducting orthorhombic BaSi2 films were synthesized on Si(111) substrates using magnetron sputtering (MS) and subsequent annealing by interdiffusion between the deposited Ba film and Si(111) substrate. The structural and morphological features of the result films are analysed. The growth mechanism and the evolution of the silicides are discussed. The effects of annealing temperature and annealing time on the growth of the BaSi2 film are studied.

The effects of annealing temperature and oxygen partial pressure [p(O2)] were investigated on the crystallization and orientation of superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-y (YBCO) films on SrTiO3(100) prepared by the dipping-pyrolysis process. Annealing conditions for precursor films consisting of a Y2O3—BaCO3—CuO mixture were varied in the temperature range 700–850 °C and initial p(O2) range 2 × 10-4-10-2 atm followed by pure O2 treatment. Three different types of crystallization behavior were observed. The c-axis-oriented epitaxial YBCO films were obtained on the lower p(O2) and higher temperature side in the p(O2)-T diagram. The c/a-axis-oriented growth was observed in films heat-treated at 750–800 °C under p(O2) of 10-3 atm. In addition, mixtures of YBCO and YBa2Cu4O8 resulted when the films were annealed at 700 °C.

AISI 410-3Mo-3Ni stainless steel is a martensitic steel which limited in using when compared to austenitic and ferritic stainless steels. Martensitic steel has an essential role in specific components due to a combination of strength, toughness and excellent corrosion resistance. However, martensitic steel tends to undergo decreasing in mechanical properties and microstructure after the forging process. In this study, mechanical properties and microstructure of the forged AISI 410 after receiving annealing heat treatment will be studied. Annealing aims to reduce material hardness and increase grain refinement of material. Annealing heat treatment is carried out by varying the annealing temperature and time. Annealing temperature variations are 7000, 7600, and 8000C. The annealing time variation is 3 hours and 6 hours. The effect of annealing time and temperature will be studied on the hardness and microstructure of the AISI 410 modified material. The optimum hardness of 35.9 HRC in sample with annealing treatment in 760°C for 6 hours. The microstructure shows delta ferrite, martensite, austenite, and carbide phases which affect hardness value of annealed samples.

The article provides the results of statistical research on the dependence of the mechanical properties of bars with a 14 mm diameter, made of the titanium alloy VT22, on the heat treatment modes and the chemical composition on the basis of the analysis of experimental, literature and manufacturing data. The authors study the correlation between mechanical properties and the content of alloying elements, admixtures, heat treatment modes. The research finds out regression dependences to evaluate the average values of the mechanical properties of the bars 14х14 mm of the alloy VT22 on the annealing temperature (within an hour, furnace cooling up to 4000С, and further air cooling) and the equivalents of alloying elements and admixtures on aluminium and molybdenum.

This presentation describes the influence of the heat treatment technology (oven equipment, temperature, duration,…) to the properties and quality of helical compression springs made from oil hardened and tempered spring steel wire.
