Influence of Heat-Treatment on Properties, Microstructure and Corrosion Resistant of Zirconium Sheet

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of annealing temperature on the microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion resistant of cold rolling zirconium sheet were studied in the manuscript. The experimental results shown that the tensile strength and yield strength of zirconium sheet were decreased and the elongationwas raised with the raising of annealing temperature from 500 °C to 580 °C. The recrystallization are not happened in zirconium sheet at the annealing temperature of 500 °C. Zirconium sheet complete recrystallized and the strength and elongation get a well match at the annealing temperature of 540°C. Zirconium sheet also complete recrystallized at the annealing temperature of 580°C but the crystalline grain has the tendency of growing. The annealing temperature has no effect on the corrosion resistant of zirconium sheet.
