In this research, the effect of cold rolling, annealing time and temperature on microstructure and hardness were studied in L-605 superalloy. A cast bar of L-605 alloy was hot rolled at 1200ºC. As the following, it was solutionized at 1230 ºC for 1 hour and finally was cold rolled by different amounts (i.e. 5-35 percent thickness reduction). The cold-rolled samples were heat treated for different times (i.e. 2-120 min.) at temperature range of 1068-1230 ºC in order to study their recrystallization behavior. The results of microstructural analysis indicated that static recrystallization is responsible for microstructural refinement and coarsening, so that an increase in the amounts of cold rolling resulted in a fully recrystallized microstructure at lower temperature. This analysis also indicated that annealing temperature is more effective than annealing time in grain growth. Microstructural evaluation as well as showed that carbides such as M7C3 and M23C6 which have been reported in some literature were not observed during rolling or annealing in this research. It is perhaps due to usage of high annealing temperatures or possibly due to their very low contents which was not possible for us to evaluate their formation with conventional methods. Hardness results revealed that higher annealing temperature lead to lower hardness values as expected.

Effect of cold-rolling and annealing time on the microstructure, hardness and the tensile properties of Haynes 25 superalloy at room-temperature and 760 °C were investigated in this research. Hot-rolled and solutionized alloy of Haynes 25 was subjected to cold-rolling with different amounts of reductions, i.e. 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 35%. After that, all cold-rolled samples were annealed at 1230 °C for a period of time from 2 to 120 min. Microstructural analysis showed that for annealing time range from 30 to 120 min, the rate of grains coarsening remained approximately stable in all cold-rolled samples. On the other hand, the hardness results showed that expected decreasing trend of hardness did not occur after annealing of the cold-rolled samples at 1230 °C; on the contrary, hardness increased moderately in the range time from 10 to 120 min. Tensile properties after annealing of the cold-rolled samples at room temperature and 760 °C decreased. Loss of the tensile properties can be related to the high annealing temperature. According to the experimental results, decreasing trend of tensile properties and increasing trend of hardness is linked to the formation of hcp phase after annealing at 1230 °C for 30 min. Even though the hcp phase is a hard phase, the interface between fcc and hcp phases provides suitable sites for crack nucleation and propagation.

The aim of this work was to analyze the recrystallization behavior of cold rolled Aluminum/graphene composites during annealing. The Aluminum/graphene composite was cold rolled firstly, and then annealed at different temperature (250°C, 300°C, 350°C, 400°C) and for various time (1 h, 2 h, 8 h, 32 h). Full recrystallization did not occur until the annealing temperature was above 300 °C. With annealing temperature increasing from 250 to 300°C, the hardness of the composites decreased from 49.6 to 27.6 HV. Grain growth were not observed at high annealing temperature and longer annealing time, which suggested that Graphene has strong pinning effect on the grain boundary of Aluminum.

Microstructure of Al-Cu-Yb and Al-Cu-Gd alloys at casting, hot-rolled -cold-rolled and annealed state were observed; the effect of annealing on the microstructure was studied, as were the mechanical properties and forming properties of the alloys, and the mechanism of action was explored. Analysis of the solidification process showed that the primary Al solidification is followed by the eutectic reaction. The second Al8Cu4Yb and Al8Cu4Gd phases play an important role as recrystallization inhibitor. The Al3Yb or (Al, Cu)17Yb2 phase inclusions are present in the Al-Cu-Yb alloy at the boundary between the eutectic and aluminum dendrites. The recrystallization starting temperature of the alloys is in the range of 250–350 °C after rolling with previous quenching at 590 and 605 °C for Al-Cu-Yb and Al-Cu-Gd, respectively. The hardness and tensile properties of Al-Cu-Yb and Al-Cu-Gd as-rolled alloys are reduced by increasing the annealing temperature and time. The as-rolled alloys have high mechanical properties: YS = 303 MPa, UTS = 327 MPa and El. = 3.2% for Al-Cu-Yb alloy, while YS = 290 MPa, UTS = 315 MPa and El. = 2.1% for Al-Cu-Gd alloy.

With the help of orientation distribution function (ODF) analysis, experiments of different hot band grain microstructure 0.33% silicon steel were cold-rolled and annealed in the laboratory,to study the effect of the microstructure hot-rolled steel strip for cold rolled non-oriented silicon steel microstructure and texture of recrystallization annealing. The results show that hot rolled microstructure on cold rolled Non-Oriented Electrical Steel cold-rolled sheet evolution of texture and recrystallization have important influence, the quiaxed grain structure of steel by cold rolling and recrystallization annealing, the recrystallization speed than the fiber grain-based mixed crystals recrystallization fast , With the equiaxed grains made of cold rolled silicon steel after annealing the {110}<UVW> texture components was enhanced and {100}<uwv> texture components weakened. Different microstructure condition prior to cold rolling in the recrystallization annealing process the texture evolution has the obvious difference, the equiaxial grain steel belt cold rolling and annealing, has the strong crystal orientation. This shows that the equiaxed grain when hot microstructure is detrimental to the magnetic properties of cold-rolled non-oriented silicon steel to improve and increase.

The static recrystallisation behaviour of cold rolled and annealed TWinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steels is important for its industrial production. The recrystallisation kinetics have been determined for an Fe-Mn-C-Si-Al TWIP steel using hardness measurements and microstructure analysis: it has been shown that recrystallisation progresses rapidly with increased annealing temperature. Recrystallisation was faster at higher cold reductions, and a smaller final grain size was observed at lower annealing temperatures. This indicates that the mechanism is nucleation dominated at lower temperatures; grain growth at higher temperatures appears similar for all reductions. The recrystallisation results in a crystallographic texture where the main components of the cold rolling texture are preserved in the final texture after annealing, although some randomisation was observed.

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.

Quenching and partitioning (Q&P) processes were applied to a cold-rolled high strength steel (0.19C-1.26Si-2.82Mn-0.92Ni, wt %). The effects of the prior hot-rolled microstructure on the optimum quenching temperature of the studied steels were systematically investigated. The microstructure was analyzed by means of transmission electron microscope (TEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Compared with the ferrite pearlite mixture matrix, the lower martensite start (Ms) temperature and smaller prior austenite grain size in the cold-rolled martensite matrix are the main reasons for the optimum quenching temperature shifting to a lower temperature in the Q&P steels. We found that an empirical formula that only considers the influence of the alloy composition in the calculation of the Ms temperature will cause a certain interference to the pre-determined optimum quenching temperature of the Q&P steel.

9Cr-1Mo ferritic steel samples containing 0.2 and 0.5 wt % silicon in 40 % cold rolled state were recrystallize-annealed at 1100, 1200 and 1300 K. The grain growth and mechanical properties after recrystallization-annealing for 20 hr to 100 hr were investigated. No significant grain growth was observed even after 100 hr annealing at 1100 and 1200 K. The recrystallization-annealing at 1200 K resulted grains smaller in size than those at 1100 K. Annealing at 1300 K exhibited the enhanced grain growth with decorative microstructures. Initial annealing after cold rolling at 1100 K exhibited low hardness which further increased with annealing temperature. Annealing at 1100 K for 20 hrs exhibited low yield strength and ultimate tensile strength compared to those of as received samples. However, for 100 hrs annealing these properties remained nearly constant for 0.2 Si composition and increased marginally for 0.5 Si composition. Recrystallization-annealing exhibited improved ductility for both the compositions.

Influence of cold rolling total thickness reduction, annealing temperature and annealing time on the textures in powder metallurgic Ni-5at.%W substrate tapes have been quantitatively investigated with the EBSD (Electron Back-Scattered Diffraction) technique. A “copper” type-like texture consisting of {1 2 3}<6 3 –4>+{0 1 –1}<3 –1 –1>+{1 –1 2}<1 –1 –1> has been found in the as-rolled tapes. This texture was much intensive in the tape at 99% thickness reduction than in the tape at 87% thickness reduction. The 99% reduction tape showed a higher fraction and sharper cube texture than the 87% reduction tape after annealing treatment. In addition, annealing at 1000°C was much favourable for the cube texture formation than annealing at 950°C and resulted in a higher cube texture fraction.
