Which of the following decrease with strain hardening______________?

Correct answer: D. Corrosion resistance

  • A. Surface hardness
  • B. Strength
  • C. Proportion limit
  • D. Corrosion resistance

Explanation

Strain hardening generally increases hardness, strength, and proportional limit because plastic deformation raises dislocation density. The resulting residual stresses can reduce corrosion resistance, making option d the decrease.
