    Effect of Cold Working

    Cold working increases the yield strength and tensile strength of copper while decreasing its ductility. Annealing removes internal stresses in copper, reduces its hardness, and increases its ductility. Cold working the microstructure of copper results in the precipitation of strengthening particles during aging. At aging temperatures between 500-600°C, hardness initially increases with time until reaching a maximum, then decreases with more time. Electron microscopy reveals a modulated microstructure characteristic of spinodal decomposition and lamellar structures after aging deformed copper at 550°C for 1 minute. Both deformed and undeformed copper containing 4% titanium exhibit precipitation hardening from the metastable β'-Cu4Ti phase during aging.

    QUESTION 1-2 Compare Graph and property:

    Heated Sample shows sudden fall in graph while Cold sample show gradual fall in graph.

    Heated Sample Cold Worked Sample

    QUESTION 3 Effect of cold working

     increase yield strength and tensile strength and decrease the ductility.

    QUESTION 4 Effect of annealing

     remove internal stresses, reduce hardness and increase ductility.

    1) Explain the effect of cold working on the microstructure of copper


     A widely used method for increasing the strength properties of metal alloys,
    in addition to cold plastic deformation, is the strengthening of new phases
    separated particles during aging. The effect of cold rolling operation between
    solutioning and aging on microstructure and properties of alloyed copper
    CuTi4. Further examination also included the effect of time and aging
    temperature. The temperature within the range 500-600ºC, the hardness
    increases with increasing aging time until reaching the maximum, but then
    with increasing aging time the hardness decreases. By using methods of
    electron microscopy (SEM, EDS, EBSD, TEM) after aging at 550°C after 1
    minute of modulated microstructure was observed – characteristic for the
    spinodal transformation and lamellar, formed by nucleation and growth. On
    the basis of conductivity, the influence of cold plastic deformation and
    subsequent aging on the hardness and electrical conductivity of the alloy
    CuTi4. With increasing aging time and with increasing aging temperature
    increases electrical conductivity of the alloy. On the basis of X-rays can be
    concluded that in alloyed copper containing 4%Ti and precipitation hardening
    metastable phase β'-Cu4Ti is separated, which occurs both in the previously
    deformed and undeformed cold worked alloy.
