Abstract

Two-stage rolling process was adopted to study the texture and special grain boundary distribution of C71500 copper-nickel alloy tubes at different annealing temperatures. The effect of temperature on the texture of C71500 copper-nickel alloy tube was analyzed. The hardness analysis was used to study the recrystallization and low lattice reconstruction grain boundaries ratio at different temperatures. It was observed by electron backscattered diffraction that static recovery of the alloy tube occurs when the annealing temperature below 800 °C and it transforms into static recrystallization at 825 °C. The initial strain-induced grain boundary migration temperature of alloy tube is about 775 °C. The number of Copper{112}<111> textures can be used to determine the ratio of the low coincidence site lattice (low ΣCSL) grain boundary. The optimal annealing process for C71500 alloy tube to obtain a high proportion of special grain boundaries is to keep the temperature at 800 °C for 15 min.
