Abstract:The microstructure of high‐purity 5N5 copper processed by high pressure torsion (HPT) is studied. Close to the top and bottom surfaces of HPT disk, the 2–10 μm‐thick ultrafine‐grained layers with equiaxial grains and grain size of about 150 nm are formed. This grain size is typical for HPT of copper and its alloys. However, the remaining bulk layer in the HPT disk contained mainly elongated intersecting twins with high aspect ratio and length of up to 1 μm. These twin grain boundaries (GBs) are faceted. The ge… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
