Influence of the repetitive corrugation on the mechanism occuring during plastic Deformation of CuSn6 alloy

Influence of the repetitive corrugation on the mechanism occuring during plastic Deformation of CuSn6 alloy This paper presents the research results of Cu$n6 alloy strip at semi-hard state, plastically deformed in the process of repetitive corrugation. The influence of process parameters on the mechanical properties and structure of examined alloy were investigated. Examination in high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) confirmed the impact of the repetitive corrugation to obtain the nano-scale structures. It has been found, that the application of repetitive corrugation increases the tensile strength (Rm). yield strength (Rpo:) and elastic limit (Rpo.os) of CuSn6 alloy strips. In the present work it has been confirmed that the repetitive corrugation process is a more efficient method for structure and mechanical properties modification of commercial CuSn6 alloy strip (serni-hard) as compared with the classic rolling process.
