description | The “torsion and annealing” grain boundary modification of pure nickel wires with different diameters was carried out in this paper. The effects of torsional cycles as well as unidirectional/bidirectional torsion methods on grain boundary characteristic distribution and plasticity were investigated. The fraction of special boundaries, grain boundary characteristic distributions and grain orientations of samples with different torsion parameters were detected by electron backscatter diffraction. Hardness measurement was conducted to characterize the plasticity. Then, the relationship between micro grain boundary characteristics and macro plasticity was explored. It was found that the special boundaries, especially Σ3 boundaries, are increased after torsion and annealing and effectively broke the random boundary network. The bidirectional torsion with small torsional circulation unit was the most conducive way to improve the fraction of special boundaries. The experiments also showed that there was a good linear correlation between the fraction of special boundaries and hardness. The plasticization mechanism was that plenty of grains with Σ3 boundaries, [001] orientations and small Taylor factor were generated in the thermomechanical processes. Meanwhile, the special boundaries broke the random boundary network. Therefore, the material was able to achieve greater plastic deformation. Moreover, the mechanism of torsion and annealing on the plasticity of pure nickel was illustrated, which provides theoretical guidance for the pre-plasticization of nickel workpieces. |
