Abstract

Hot compression tests were carried out on the duplex α + β leaded brass CuZn39Pb3 in temperature range of 600–800 °C and at strain rates of 0.001–1 s−1. A self-consistent model was used to analyze the flow behavior of the constituents and the material. A linear viscoplastic model was used to relate the flow stress of β and α + β composite to strain rate and the corresponding viscosity parameters were calculated at various deformation conditions. Using the viscosity parameters of β and α + β and the volume fractions of the constituents, the viscosity parameter of α was calculated. The values of the viscosity-like parameters and strain rate sensitivity for β and α + β composite were calculated using the nonlinear powerlaw viscoplastic equation. The results showed that the flow stress of α calculated using the self-consistent model was considerably higher than that of β. The difference could be attributed to the lower Zn content in α. The flow stress of α + β composite was calculated using the law of mixture rule. The law of mixture modeling of α + β composite for the iso-strain condition resulted to the overestimation of flow stress. The difference between the experimental and predicted results was attribute to the strain partitioning between α and β.
