Recrystallization and its Impact on Material Properties

Recrystallization Process: When a deformed metal is heated to elevated temperatures, the atoms’ diffusion ability increases and the elongated (or flattened) and fractured grains undergo re-nucleation and growth to form new, uniform, and fine equiaxed grains. This process is known as recrystallization. After recrystallization, the strength and hardness of the metal significantly decrease while plasticity […]
