Second stage dynamic strain aging is observed during cold drawing of low carbon steel wire rods with higher free nitrogen content. The effect is prominent in thinner wires which have experienced higher strain and are thereby heavily stressed. Consequently, these severely deformed wires with higher nitrogen content are prone to early environmental degradation.
