Microstructural evolution and micro-compression in high-purity copper processed by high-pressure torsion
Microstructural evolution and micro-compression in high-purity copper processed by high-pressure torsion
Pure copper is subjected to severe plastic deformation at room temperature using quasi-constrained high-pressure torsion through 1/4 to 10 turns. The evolution of the microstructure is monitored using X-ray diffraction and electron backscatter diffraction. Specimens are analyzed both before and after micro-compression of ?50%. The results show that after 10 turns there is a homogeneous ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure with an average grain size of ?250?nm and with a simple shear texture. The micro-compression testing shows that UFG specimens exhibit a better surface quality after compression thereby demonstrating an excellent potential for using UFG copper in micro-forming.

Abstract
Pure copper is subjected to severe plastic deformation at room temperature using quasi-constrained high-pressure torsion through 1/4 to 10 turns. The evolution of the microstructure is monitored using X-ray diffraction and electron backscatter diffraction. Specimens are analyzed both before and after micro-compression of ?50%. The results show that after 10 turns there is a homogeneous ultrafine-grained (UFG) microstructure with an average grain size of ?250?nm and with a simple shear texture. The micro-compression testing shows that UFG specimens exhibit a better surface quality after compression thereby demonstrating an excellent potential for using UFG copper in micro-forming.
