Tensile Behavior of Rolled and Annealed Copper Thin Foils

Article Preview

Abstract:

Tensile properties of rolled and annealed copper thin foils were investigated based on the grain size and thickness. Yield strength was higher in the thinner foil than in the thicker foil at as-rolled state. Difference of yield strength between the thinner foil and the thicker foil becomes small at annealed state. Tensile strength was higher in the thinner foil than in the thicker foil at as-rolled state, but it was reversed at annealed state. Strain to fracture or elongation increased with increasing thickness in the annealed state. A knife edge type of fracture was characterized in both the as-rolled state and the annealed state. A higher tensile strength and strain to fracture of the annealed thicker foil was attributed to the higher number of grains per thickness. From this work, it was concluded that mechanical properties of thin foils were dependent upon the number of grains per thickness.
