Brass is binary copper-zinc alloy, also known as common brass, according to the organization can be divided into single brass and two-phase brass. Single brass also known as brass, copper content in 62.4%-100% (wt) . Two-phase brass is (+) brass, the CU content is between 56.6%-62.4% (wt) , the solid solubility of Zn in Cu increases with the decrease of temperature. In addition to aluminum-containing brass, brass generally no heat treatment strengthening effect. Therefore, annealing is often used to improve its cold processing (stamping, drawing, machining) performance. The mechanical properties and cold deformation properties of semi-finished brass after annealing mainly depend on the grain size, the general rule is that the grain size is small and the hardness is high. In addition, large cold deformation, high hardness (cold work hardening) , low annealing temperature, high hardness. After cold deformation annealing, the hardness is low for a long time at the same temperature, and low for a long time at the same temperature. Brass with low zinc content has little cold work hardening effect, so it needs to refine its grain to obtain higher hardness. Brass containing more than 20% (WT) of Zn exists residual stress after cold deformation. In humid atmosphere (especially the atmosphere containing ammonia and ammonium salt) , mercury and mercury salt solvents, stress corrosion and cracking are easy to occur, so stress relief annealing must be carried out. The intermediate annealing temperature (c) during the cold working of brass generally needs to be appropriately reduced with the reduction of the effective size (mm) , as listed below:

The recrystallization annealing of brass wire needs to increase the annealing temperature (°c) gradually with the three states of "hard, semi-hard and soft" before annealing, and the wire diameters should be adjusted accordingly:
H96, H90, H80: line diameter 0.3-0.6 soft 390-410 line diameter 0.3-6.0 hard 160-180 soft 390-410

When AL, NI, FE, SN, SI, MN, PB and other major elements are incorporated into the phase and phase, the relative quantities of the phase and phase change. Brass containing more than 3% (WT) Al can be aged strengthened. For example, the heat treatment strengthening process of HAl59-3.2 is solid solution at 800 °C and aging at 350-450 °C. The standard grain size of brass is expressed in terms of average grain size (mm)(see YS/t 347-2004"copper and copper alloys, determination of average grain size") . Different standard grain size, adapt to different
