Experimental Analysis of Wire Drawing Influence on Microstructure, Texture, and Mechanical Properties of High-Carbon Steel for Prestressing Strand

The study aims to explore high-carbon steel’s behavior during cold drawing, focusing on the link between microstructural changes, texture, and mechanical properties at different strain levels. Using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron
microscopy–electron backscatter diffraction, micro- and nanoindentation, and wear analysis, findings show that grain size and interlamellar spacing decrease as strain increases, and pearlitic colonies become more compact and aligned.
This refinement leads to significant hardening, from 333.8 HV in the wire rod to 470.4 HV at 2.05 strain, aligning with the Hall–Petch law. The <110> fiber texture develops linearly, and a higher dislocation density is noted at lower strain
rates, with low-angle grain boundaries increasing from 65.2% to 76.5%. The cold drawing process is thus divided into two phases, marked by a shift from low-angle grain boundaries dominance and a notable reduction in wear rate
compared to severely deformed states

Precipitation and Age Hardening in Al-Mg-Si-(Cu) Alloys for Automotive Body Sheet

Abstract : This present work is focused on the hardening precipitation in two AlMgSi(Cu) automotive body sheets. The effect of pre-aging, aging treatment and 0.10 wt % copper addition on the hardening response was investigated using scanning calorimetry (DSC), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Vickers microhardness measurements (Hv). The results reveal the apparition of α-AlFeSi, α-AlFe(Mn)Si type precipitates frequently present and witch remain stable at high temperature in Al-Mg-Si alloys. Indeed, the hardening response in both sheets is certainly due to the predominance of very fine typical phases β' and β'' as rods and needles developed during aging with and without pre-aging. The effect of pre ageing just after homogenization and quenching is to correct the undesirable effect of aging at ambient temperature by making faster alloy hardening during artificial aging.The addition of 0.10 wt % copper has allowed to refine and to enhance the precipitation hardening after quenching.

Effect of Heat Treatment on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Medium-Carbon Steel Drawn Wire

Abstract:
In this article, the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical behavior of medium-carbon steel wire intended for the spring mattress is investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), X-ray diffraction, Vickers hardness (Hv), and tensile strength. The results indicate that the microstructure elongation along the wire axis is observed with the bending and kinking lamellae at the deformation level of 57.81%, this change appears as a fracture in the microstructure and leads to an increase in hardness, tensile strength, and intensities of diffraction patterns. After heat treatment, we observed a redistribution in the grain, which is almost the same in the wire rod and drawn wires; indeed, this led to a decrease in hardness, tensile strength, and augmentation in intensities of peaks. The EBSD pole figures reveal the development of texture in the cementite slip plane (001).

EFFECT OF DEFORMATION RATE ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND DRAWABILITY OF MEDIUM-CARBON STEEL

The effect of deformation rate on the evolution of microstructure and the drawability of a wire from medium- carbon steel D45-2 to at a true strain t= 1.70 and t = 2.70 is investigated. The microstructure of thewires is studied by scanning electron microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction, crystallographic analysis of texture and tensile tests. It is shown that the behavior of the structure and the deformability of the wires under drawing depend much on the deformation rate. The drawing refines the grains and stretches them in the drawing direction (WDD). A crystallographic fibrous texture 110  WDD develops especially intensely at the higher strain rate t = 2.70; the tensile strength grows considerably due to elevation of the dislocation density.The wire from the medium-carbon steel is shown to undergo high deformation without failure during the drawing.
Key words: medium-carbon steel, true strain, drawing of wire, microstructure, texture, deformability, fracture.

effect of deformation rate microstructure and drawability of medum carbon steel wires

The effect of cold deformation on microstructure and drawability of medium steel wire drawn under wiredrawing reductions up of 94.5% is investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) to examine microstructure evolution and the crystallographic texture analysis and tensile tests to measurement and to estimation of drawability. Three experimental conditions are studied, as received wire rod, wires drawn respectively at true strain ε =1.70 and ε =2.70. The results indicate that the drawability and microstructure evolution of medium carbon steel wires are well sensitive to deformation rate. The microstructure is clarified in dependence on the strain level. It can be seen clearly that after wiredrawing there is a redistribution of grains along the wire drawing direction (WD) and the size of grains is refined and became smaller, also the evolution of the crystallographic texture reveals the development of a fiber texture <ll0> //WD at low strain and is intensified at higher strain, As well, tensile strength increases by increasing the drawing strain. As a result, drawability of medium carbon steel wire reveals a high level of deformation at which the wire drawn may be plastically deformed prior to fracture

Wire drawing effect on microstructural and textural evolution in medium carbon steel wires

his study was mainly oriented on the evolution of the crystallographic texture as a function of the deformation resulting from the industrial wire drawing process. This, in fact, will make it possible to establish a relationship between the microstructure and the crystallographic texture in the medium carbon steel wires obtained by industrial wire drawing process and used in the manufacture of spring mattresses in order to minimize the loss of material and to satisfy the users of this product. During this study, a medium-carbon steel wires was characterized by two analytical techniques. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to monitor the microstructure evolution and the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) for the crystallographic texture analysis. The EBSD results are processed with OIM (Orientation Imaging Microscopy) analysis software.

Mechanical Properties and Texture Evolution of High-Carbon Steel Wires during Wire Drawing: Strand Manufacturing

Abstract. In this paper, the evolution of texture in the ferrite phase and mechanical behavior of colddrawn
pearlitic steel wires produced for strand manufacturing at Trefisoud company was investigated.
Wire drawing induces the development of dislocation density, reduction of interlamellar spacing and
the refinement of grains size which leads to a strong hardening of the wires. That explains the increase
of the tensile strength from 1242 MPa to 2618 MPa with higher deformation. Also, the cementite
lamellae are rotated toward the drawing axis and the thickness of lamellae further decreases when
strain level increases, this phenomenon leads to a somewhat fibrous structure. The quantitative
analysis obtained by EBSD data shows the development of a strong (<110> // ND) texture of the
ferrite phase leading to a structural transformation from isotropic to anisotropic.

Microstructure and mechanical behavior of a high carbon steel wire

The high-strength steel strands are used in the constructions of prestressed concrete as well in a many in-dustrial applications such as : hoisting loads, aerial cable-ways, the bridges decks, suspension cables,, the retaining walls, the petroleum platforms, airports etc. They are composed of drawn steel wire twisted helicaly around an axial wire. These wires are obtained by the wiredrawing process of a hard perlitic steel wire of carbon concentration close to the eutectoid composition followed by a thermo-mechanical treatment of stabilization. The main goal of this work is to undertake a preliminary characteristic study of high-carbon steel wire rods used for the manufacture of strands. The two wires which are in a rough state of hot rolling are investigated by the following experimental techniques : Vickers microhardness and the X-ray diffraction analysis.

Fabrication et Contrôle des Électrodes de soudure et Armatures de précontrainte (Fils &Torons )

Les origines du soudage moderne datent de l’afin du 19eme siècle et le début du 20eme siècle.Les premières expériences dans le soudage furent avec une âme métallique nue. En 1904 l’ingénieur suédois Oscar KJELBERG développa et breveta un système d’enrobage qui permet de protéger la fusion de soudure des contaminations atmosphériques (oxydation et nitruration ). C’est le début de développement rapide et prodigieux de la soudure à l’arc. En 1905, il fonda ESAB¨qui devenait plus tard le leader mondial dans le domaine du soudage et les techniques connexes.
La « précontrainte » est un concept inventé par Eugène Freyssinet en 1933. Ce terme signifiant « contraint avant » - indique que le béton est soumis à un serrage préalable. le béton précontraint est alors soumis à une compression qui se superpose aux éventuelles tractions réduisant ainsi les risques de fissuration. - Initialement développé dans le domaine des ponts, le béton précontraint s’est largement étendu à l’ensemble des ouvrages du domaine de la construction, dont celui du bâtiment.

Microstructural Evolutions and Mechanical Properties of Drawn Medium Carbon Steel Wire

This study focuses on the evolution in the microstructure, texture and mechanical
properties of medium carbon steel wires obtained by wire drawing at Tréfissoud Company for the
manufacturing of the spring mattress. Wire drawing induces elongation of grains in the direction of
drawing with the development of the <110> fiber texture parallel to the wire axis. Kinking and
bending of cementite lamellae were observed during the drawing process. The work was carried out
respectively on three states, wire rod and drawn states for two different amounts (ε %=43,6 and 60
%), using the optical and SEM microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction and X-ray diffraction
analysis for examination of the microstructure and texture evolution, the hardness Vickers and
tensile test to follow the curing of the studied wires.

Study of Microstructural and Mechanical behavior of Mild Steel Wires Cold Drawn at TREFISOUD

The aim of the present work is to study the evolution of microstructure, texture and
mechanical properties during drawing of mild steel wire of type F8Z used in the manufacture of
welding electrodes TREFISOUD. It was found that the as received wire has a ferritic-pearlitic
microstructure corresponding to an isotopic state (without texture). This microstructure is relatively
heterogeneous in the wire section. On the other hand, after strong drawing structure appears
relatively homogeneous, throughout the section of the drawn wire. Also the deformation process by
drawing causes the hardening of wire as a function of deformation with a reinforcing component of
the fiber texture <110> // ND (majority), typical for bcc materials. Characterization methods used in
this work is: Optical microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), the Electron Back
Scattered Diffraction EBSD, Vickers microhardness and the tensile tests.

Effect of Preaging and maturing on the Hradening Precipitation of AlMgSi Alloy

The effect of pre-aging and maturing at room temperature on hardening response of an Al–Mg–Si alloy is investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), hardness measurements (Hv) and scanning
electron microscopy (SEM). Two experimental conditions are examined. First, natural aging for different times (3 weeks and 1 month) followed by artificial aging at 180 ◦C as function time. Second, pre-aging at
temperatures in the range 75–100 ◦C followed by artificial aging at 180 ◦C after natural aging for the same periods. The present results indicate that the effect of the pre-aging just after the heating and quenching is
used in order to correct the undesirable effect of aging at room temperature. However, during the artificial aging, the alloy hardening becomes faster. Aged samples which have already undergone pre-aging and
maturing reveal the better hardening response.
