    All,

    Apart from the indirect effect of hardening alloys (i.e. generically increasing the yield strength, which effects resisitance to SCC or creep etc), does anybody know of a direct influence of the work hardening technique itself?

    As an example, solid solution intersitital strengthening using C in stainless steel can lead to intergranular corrosion if C is > 0.03w%. So this is a direct affect of the solid solution strengthening technique on a particular alloy's susceptibility to a damage mechanism.

    Does anyone know of one related to work hardening in any alloys?

    Thanks

    Crispin
