In 2005, a postdoctoral researcher in his laboratory developed a water annealing process, reconstituting the silks slowly in a humid environment.

2005年，他实验室的一位博士后研究员利用一种水退火过程在潮湿环境下对丝类进行了缓慢的重组。

This process is known as full annealing because it wipes out all trace of previous structure, refines the crystalline structure, and softens the metal.

这过程被称为完全退火，因为它去除了以前组织结构的所有痕迹、细化晶粒并软化金属。

The process of annealing consists of heating the steel to an elevated temperature for a definite period of time and, usually, cooling it slowly.

退火工艺的组成为把钢加热到一定温度并保持一段时间，通常再缓慢冷却。

Its greatest exponent is Yasuki Hiramatsu, born into a family of metalsmiths, who, through an annealing process, can twist a single length of gold or silver into a ring or necklace enchantingly resembling a minimalist bird's-nest.
