Concept:
Temper rolling (skin-passing) is a light cold rolling process applied to annealed steel sheets to improve surface finish and mechanical behavior without significantly changing microstructure.
It mainly affects:
• surface appearance
• elimination of yield point elongation
• improved flatness
However, it does not significantly alter grain size because deformation is very small.
Step 1: Effect on surface quality.
Light rolling smoothens surface irregularities and improves finish.
\[
\Rightarrow \text{Surface quality improves}
\]
Step 2: Effect on flatness.
Residual stresses are reduced and sheet becomes flatter.
\[
\Rightarrow \text{Flatness improves}
\]
Step 3: Effect on yield point elongation.
It eliminates Lüders bands by removing yield point phenomenon.
\[
\Rightarrow \text{Yield-point elongation improves}
\]
Step 4: Effect on grain size.
No significant plastic deformation occurs, so grain refinement does NOT occur.
\[
\Rightarrow \text{No grain refinement}
\]
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{\text{Grain size refinement}}
\]
