Abstract	The effects of solid solutionizing treatment and following hot extrusion on microstructural and mechanical properties of the extruded brass alloy (Cu-40Zn) with a small addition of titanium (Ti) were investigated in the present study. Cu-40Zn with 0.5 mass% Ti (Cu-40Zn-0.5Ti) alloy ingot was prepared by a casting process. This cast alloy consisted of α-β duplex phase structures. Furthermore, Cu-40Zn-0.5Ti alloy contained coarse Cu₂TiZn intermetallic compounds (IMCs) with 10-30 μm diameters. The IMCs were completely soluble in the both α and β phases by heat treatment at 973 K for 15 min. Cu-40Zn-0.5Ti alloy was pre-heated at 973 K for 15 min in solid solutionizing, and immediately extruded to fabricate a rod specimen of 7 mm diameter. The extruded specimen contained fine precipitates, having a mean particle sizes of 0.5 μm diameter, which were dispersed in both phases, not coarse Cu₂TiZn IMCs. In particular, since the grain growth of the α phase was inhibited by the pinning effect of the above fine precipitates at the grain boundaries, α phase consisted of fine grains. The extruded specimen consisted of remarkably fine and uniform α-β phases with an average grain size of 2.14 μm. The tensile properties of the extruded specimens showed an average value of yield strength: 304 MPa, ultimate tensile strength: 543 MPa, and 44 % elongation. The extruded specimens revealed suitable strengths and good ductility. The high strengthening mechanism of the wrought brass alloy was mainly due to the grain refinement of α and β phases by the fine precipitates derived from solid solutionizing Ti elements in the matrix.
