Deformation methods of nanostructuring (DMNs) of materials are proposed to classify into severe plastic deformation (SPD) and mild plastic deformation (MPD) methods according to fundamentally different low- and high-temperature grain refinement mechanisms they exploit. A general analysis of the fundamentals and nanostructuring efficiency of three most developed DMNs, high pressure torsion (HPT), equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP), and multiple isothermal forging (MIF) is done with a particular attention to ECAP and MIF. It is demonstrated that MIF is the most efficient method of DMNs allowing one to obtain the bulkiest nanostructured samples with enhanced mechanical properties.

The present work deals with the evolution of mechanical properties and structure of low-carbon Fe-1,12Mn-0,08V-0,07Ti-0,1C (wt.%) steel after severe plastic deformation (SPD) and high-temperature annealing. Steel in initial ferritic-pearlitic state was deformed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at T=200°C and high pressure torsion (HPT) at room temperature. The evolution of ultrafine grained structure and its thermal stability were investigated after annealing at 400-700°C for 1 hour. The results shown that SPD leads to formation of structure with an average size of (sub-) grain of 260 nm after ECAP and 90 nm after HPT. Ultrafine grained structures produced by SPD reveal a high thermal stability up to 500°C after ECAP and 400°C after HPT. At higher annealing temperatures a growth of structural elements and a decrease in microhardness were observed.

AbstractThis paper presents some results of the influence of severe plastic deformation on the microstructure evolution, grain refinement aspect, and mechanical properties of ultra-low carbon steel. Ti-stabilized experimental IF steel was deformed at a room temperature with unconventional SPD process—dual rolls equal channel extrusion (DRECE). Mechanical properties and structure of ferritic steel in initial state and after selected steps of deformation were investigated. The mechanical properties were determined by static tensile tests carried out at a room temperature and microhardness research. The structural investigations involved using scanning transmission electron microscopy observations, electron back scattered diffraction and measurements of the crystallographic texture. The DRECE process affects the evolution of the structure. The microstructural investigations revealed that the processed strips exhibited a dislocation cell and grain structures with mostly low angle grain boundaries. The electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD) examination showed that the processed microstructure is homogeneous along the strips thickness. The mechanical properties of the DRECE-processed IF steel strips increased with an increase the number of passes.
