Tungsten (W) shows a pronounced transition from ductile deformation behaviour at high temperatures to brittle behaviour at low temperatures (ductile-to-brittle transition). Standard, coarse-grained W exhibits transition temperatures TDBT around 300∘ C, rendering it unsuitable for structural applications below TDBT. The transition is shifted to lower temperatures by cold-working W in wire drawing, rolling or a severe plastic deformation process. Sufficiently cold-worked W materials deform plastically at room temperature and below. The reasons for the shift of TDBT are connected to the deformation-induced microstructural changes. Thus, we performed the first systematic study focusing on the structure-property relations of a series of sequentially drawn potassium-doped W wires. The combination of careful microstructural investigations (electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), X-ray diffraction (XRD)) and various mechanical tests performed at room and elevated temperatures allow for new insights into the deformation behaviour of drawn W wires.
