Stress-strain curves of sintered pure molybdenum were analyzed by the Crussard and Jaoul method that assumes the Ludwik equation, σ=σ
0+
hε
n. Also, the effects of temperature (292∼550°K) and stain rate (10
−6∼10
−2 sec
−1) on the constants
h and
n were studied. Obviously, the Crussard and Jaoul plot exhibited a “double-
n behavior”. Both temperature and strain rate had no influence upon the parameters
n1,
n2 and
h1, while an increase in temperature resulted in the decrease in
h2 (
h at ε>ε
1) and ε
1, the latter being independent of strain rate. The double-
n behavior was discussed with the aid of a dislocation model reported by Bergström, and it was concluded that ε
1 did not correspond necessarily to the plastic strain for the formation of cell structures.
σ
0 (=σ−
hε
n) was independent of the plastic strain, but varied strongly with temperature and strain rate. Again, σ
0 could be divided into two components, i.e. σ
0=σ
*(
T, \dotε)+σ
μ1, where σ
μ1 was estimated to be 5.0 kg/mm
2. Subsequently, σ
* was calculated to be 23.3, 10.0 and 3.5 kg/mm
2 at 292, 350 and 420°K, respectively for \dotε=3.3×10
−4 sec
−1, and they are in a good agreement with the previous results from stress relaxation tests. Finally, logσ
* versus log\dotε plots showed a good linear relation, and the dislocation velocity-stress exponent,
m* (=dln\dotε⁄dlnσ
*) was deduced to be 6.5 independent of test temperatures above 292°K.
