Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As an attempt to reveal the role of solid-solution atoms on deformation of Cu during the severe plastic deformation (SPD) process, effects of Zn, Si and Ni additions on mechanical properties and microstructure of Cu after the SPD process were systematically investigated up to the solid-solution limits of these atoms. Experimental results were considered in terms of concentration of solid-solution atoms, electron-atom ratio and the stacking fault energy (SFE). In the case of the nanostructured Cu-Zn and Cu-Si alloys, the increase of hardness correlated to the decrease of SFE as a function of electron-atom ratio. Decreased SFE by Zn and Si additions caused the enhanced strain-hardening during the SPD process. This led to the strengthening of the nanostructured alloys. On the other hand, hardening of nanostructured Cu-Ni alloy should be not related to the change of SFE. This hardening would be caused by dislocation pinning effect followed by suppression of recovery during the SPD process.
