The paper reports on the effect of severe plastic deformation on mechanical properties of an Al-4.57Mg-0.35Mn-0.2Sc-0.09Zr (in wt. pct.) alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing followed by cold rolling (CR). The sheets of the 5024 alloy with coarse grained (CG) structure exhibited a yield stress (YS) near 410 MPa and an ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 480 MPa, while the YS and UTS of this material with ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure increased to 530 and 560 MPa, respectively. On the other hand, the elongation to failure decreased by a factor of 2 and 4 after CR and CR following ECAP, respectively. It was shown that dislocation strengthening attributed to extensive CR plays a major role in achieving high strength of this alloy. Besides these macroscopic characteristics, jerky flow caused by the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) instability of plastic deformation was examined. The formation of UFG structure results in a transition from mixed type A+B to pure type B PLC serrations. No such effect on the serrations type was observed after CR.

Angular Pressing

Severe plastic deformation processes (SPD) are gaining importance as advanced materials processing techniques and hold immense potential in obtaining ultra fine-grained high strength materials. Among the SPD techniques, Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) has its own merits to produce materials with ultra fine grains in bulk with better mechanical properties. The material deforms with high level of plastic strain inside the channel resulting in grain refinement of the output material with improvement in mechanical properties. A very viable die configuration was conceptualized and die was made with 1200 channel angle. Processing of 25 mm dia. of Al alloy AA2219 at room temperature was successfully carried out and grain refinement was observed. The mechanism of grain refinement has been studied using optical and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was observed that low energy dislocation structure (LEDS) forms concurrently with sub-grain structure due to dislocation rearrangements, which provide stability to the evolving sub-grain structure. Dislocation mobility is hindered by the presence of precipitates and / or intermetallic dispersoids present in the matrix and results in presence of dislocations in grain interiors. The pile up of dislocations at intermetallic dispersoids was confirmed from the dark field TEM micrographs. Present paper describes the experimental procedure and followed to attain severe plastic deformation through ECAP. Increase in hardness as well as refinement in the grain size after 5-passes have been discussed in light of extensive optical and TEM. The mechanisms of grain refinement to achieve nano-grained structure and strengthening accrued from the grain refinement through ECAP has been discussed.

Due to the widespread use of copper wires in electrical power transmission, the need for raw materials with a homogeneous structure and high strength while maintaining their conductive properties is of high importance. The present study investigates the production of copper wire with improved mechanical properties and homogeneous microstructure due to its nanometre-sized structure. Therefore, the commercial pure copper specimens were subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by means of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) during four steps at ambient temperature. Due to the creation of a structure with elongated grains in the ECAP process, the deformed specimens were subjected to the direct extrusion operations; thus, a more homogeneous structure was created in them due to the appearance of a secondary radial strain. The obtained results indicate that by applying the simultaneous effects of SPD and direct extrusion on the microstructure, the mechanical properties such as strength and hardness have improved significantly, while the electrical conductivity of pure copper decreased slightly. The outcome can be used as an alternative to current methods for producing high-strength copper wires with suitable electrical conductivity properties.

Severe plastic deformation (SPD) Processes is to be determined as metal forming processes in which a very large plastic strain is imposed on a bulk process in which to make an ultra-fine-grained metal. Generating an ultrafine grained metal is to allow lightweight parts by using high strength metal for the safety and reliability of micro-parts and for eco-friendly, is the main intention of SPD Processes. In Severe plastic deformation processes (SPD), repetitive corrugation and straightening (RCS) are one of the new technical processes, in which the grain size is reduced to ultrafine grain size then the strength of copper is going to be increased by using this process in this project. The Taguchi optimization technique is utilized with conventional orthogonal array L9, in which to determine the process parameters are statistically significant on hardness. Finally, the verification test was carried out to investigate optimization enhancements.

Abstract Cu-Cr-Zr alloys provide an excellent combination of strength and electric conductivity and are frequently used as engineering materials in various electric/electronic devises. The present review deals with the microstructural design of Cu-Cr-Zr alloys, their alloying concept, thermo-mechanical processing based on technique of severe plastic deformation, physical mechanisms responsible for high strength and electric conductivity. The influences of microstructure and a dispersion of secondary phases on the mechanical properties and electric conductivity are discussed in detail. First, precipitation sequences during aging that leads to depletion of Zr and Cr solutes from Cu solution are critically reviewed in close connection with interaction mechanisms between dislocations and particles. Then, the main structure-property relationships of Cu-Cr-Zr alloys are considered. Finally, the strengthening of Cu-Cr-Zr alloys through severe plastic deformation by means of submicrocrystalline/nanocrystalline structure and increasing dislocation density as well as the effects of post-deformation heat treatment on the mechanical and electric properties are discussed.

Hydrostatic extrusion can be viewed as one of the methods of Severe Plastic Deformation, SPD, for the fabrication of ultra-fine grained alloys which causes a significant increase in the mechanical properties such as tensile strength and hardness. In the present study the microstructure of 6082 aluminium alloy after hydrostatic extrusion was investigated. Hydroextrusion was performed in three steps with accumulated true strains of 1.34, 2.73 and 3.74 respectively. Microstructural observations were carried out using SEM, TEM and light microscopy. Grain and inclusion sizes, shapes and distribution were investigated in the HE processed samples. The study has shown that the hydrostatic extrusion process results in a profound refinement of both the grain size and the inclusions in 6082 aluminium alloy.
