The recrystallization temperature is temperature at which recrystallization can occur for a given material and processing conditions. This is not a set temperature and is dependent upon factors including the following:
* Increasing annealing time decreases recrystallization temperature
* Alloys have higher recrystallization temperatures than pure metals
* Increasing amount of cold work decreases recrystallization temperature
* Smaller cold-worked grain sizes decrease the recrystallization temperature
